Is Kyle Lohse a Type A free agent?
Kyle Lohse will be a Type A free agent at the end of the year after comparing him to last year Type A free agents Tom Glavine and Andy Pettite. This could mean the St. Louis Cardinals might be better off holding on to him until the end of the season, allowing them to use his services now and still get young talent in return.
