    The Milwaukee Brewers released struggling pitcher Jeff Suppan on Monday during the final year of what was the richest contract in team history when he signed it.

    The Brewers signed Suppan to a $42 million, four-year deal before the 2007 season, but he never pitched as strongly as he did in his three previous seasons in St. Louis.

    With the Cardinals, he won a World Series and was picked the NLCS MVP in 2006.

    "I was committed to winning and to this day I still am. Nobody is more disappointed than I am with how things have turned out," Suppan said in a statement. "I enjoyed my time here in Milwaukee as both a player and a member of the community."
