Why not?

Code: Select all: IP W SV K ERA WHIP C. Cordero (Was - RP) 28 2 15 27 1.29 1.07 F. Cordero (Tex - RP) 23.2 0 16 31 3.8 1.35

whoops, my bad. ;-7

chad is good. he's good and he's young. and the nat's arn't as bad as people think. i think chad's ERA will go up and cordero's down, but i think chad will finish with at least comperable numbers by year's end.

Completely agree.

I just think Francisco is the more proven and valuable closer. People shouldn't base his season from what he's done so far this year. He gets K's and has great ratios. He will be top 5 closer material. Last year he was practically un-hittable. I just don't think Chad is ready to be in the top closer tier right now.

Chad will become better as the years pass, but for now..I think Francisco is better by a long shot.

absolutly correct. ignoring past performance would be silly.

from 2004:

Code: Select all: IP W SV K ERA WHIP C. Cordero (Was - RP) 82.2 7 14 83 2.94 1.34 F. Cordero (Tex - RP) 71.2 3 49 79 2.13 1.28

yep.

note that francisco has pitched at a rather high level since about 2002, and chad is relatively new to the scene. so in that sense, francisco is certainly better-established. but since chad has given us no reason to think his numbers will get worse (he's even cut down significantly on his walks from last year), i don't see why you shouldn't at least value them approximately equally. an arguement can be made either way, but i don't think one is clearly more vaulable than another.

As a Chad Cordero owner, I love what he's done this year, but I'm sure most would think I was crazy if I turned town Francisco Cordero straight up for him.

I actually traded Francisco Cordero point blank for Chad and my whole league thought I was retarded so I wanted your opinion. Very interesting.
