Chad Cordero kicking butt

[Scott34]

Cordero has lowered his ERA at SLC to 3.86.  32.2 IP, 7 BB, 26 K.

 

10 scoreless outings in a row.  His fastball has ticked up to 90-91 and it looks like has some sort of cutter that has been very effective.

 

I'd love to see him with the Halos soon.  Buckner and/or Roth could be sent down.  What a story.

I have almost zero faith in Kohn so you can add him to the list of guys to send down. Any positive news regarding arms in the minors is a good thing though.

[Make Angels Great Again]

Zero faith in Kohn? He's been one of our best, lol.

 

Glad you're not building the pen.

He seems to always allow inherited runners to score which is not a good thing. He's way to inconsistent but I get it that there are no ther options. Watch what happens when they put him in a tight game.

Miguel Cabrera says hola

He's allowed 15% of inherited runners to score, tied with Frieri for best on the team.

 

So, no.

shhh...don't let facts get in the way

Absolutely would love to see this guy get promoted.  His stuff is finally beginning to look as it did earlier in his career when he was a Major League quality closer.  3.86 ERA is quite an accomplishment in the PCL.

Whip is a bit high.  1.26.  But wouldn't be bad to call him up after the AS break.  See if he looks good and maybe someone will have interest in him.

... uh - yeah... the Angels will be on that list of teams that "will have interest in him" if he looks good...

[Reveille1984]

Its weird how people have random gutteral reactions to players even though their stats show otherwise. 

[nando714]

Wouldn't mind him getting a shot

He's definitely earned it

[Homebrewer]

If he had a bigger contract, he would be up by now.... whether he was the best option or not.

[Angel Oracle]

We need an extra reliable enough guy in the pen after the ASB, what with the 32 games in 33 days to play.  

Frieri, Jepsen, Downs, DDLR, and Kohn can't handle that expected workload alone.

 

Cordero and maybe Coello's return by late Julyearly August would be just what the team needs.

I give up on Madson and Burnett.

[SoWhat]

Has there been any updates on Madson?

[Lou]

Has there been any updates on Madson?

 

He's day-to-day

So, no.

I guess he also missed the game where he struck out the heart of their order (including Cabrera) in Detroit in a tough situation.  That was one of the relief highlights of the year for me.

[Docwaukee]

He's day-to-day

you know what video to post.

Agreed.

 

PCL is brutal for pitchers.
