just asking since cordero had his share of problems last year and ray seemed pretty steady all year. i havent analyzed RPs yet so i may be wrong here, but my understanding is that f. cordero is on some shaky ground.
Right now, with all the sources I have, Cordero carries an average ranking of 12.0 compared to Ray's 13.3. However Cordero's standard deviation is 1.83 while Ray is 3.22, so taking Ray ahead of Cordero, certainly isn't out of the question.

Cordero had one bad month and it was April, that doesn't offset all the previous years where he was a solid closer.

I think the biggest knock on Cordero is that he puts too many on base. His WHIP has never been that great.

Yeah that is true, its why he's not a nathan level closer. But to say that he's somehow risky compared to Chris Ray like the original poster I quoted said is kind of off base. I expect a big dropoff from Ray this year, his indicators did not come close to matching his stats last year.
