Dempster is who I thought we'd go for all along---he's familiar---and, was down enough to be afforadble-ish also, unfortunately, he fits the mold of the FA pitcher's Melvin has signed before---Suppan, Wolf, Looper---so, i'd say there's a good to great shot of this one happening... My guess? 3 years 36 million...and he'll be ok for one of those, good for one, and god forsakenly awful for one...ya know...just like wolf and suppan
