Free Agent Mulder Still Looking for Work?

PrintFree agent Mark Mulder is still on the recovery from shoulder surgery, but teams are not biting at the idea of giving him an opportunity. The Dodgers scouted him but are going to pass, as have the Phillies and Brewers in the last week.
The Twins' pitching collapse last night could give Mulder an opportunity there, but reports around baseball suggest that the Twins will remain quiet this trade deadline. Mulder may be force to sit out this season, which would be too bad for the once All-Star pitcher. The baggage he brings to a team is not worth it for a contender, and teams that are out of contention won't spend the money on a veteran pitcher who would have little impact on the season.
If an independent team is looking to fill seats, they could give Mulder a call. The ball is in your court, Newark Bears.

It's too late in the season.
He’s riskier than Pedro was, and any team that accept having him perform at a mediocre level doesn’t want to waste money now.

I have always liked Mulder, and I think he will be solid for any team that takes a chance.
What you fail to understand in your joyless myopia is that baseball is the key to life-- the Rosetta Stone, if you will. If you just understood baseball better all your other questions your, your... the, uh... the aliens, the conspiracies they would all, in their way be answered by the baseball gods.
