I know I have said all the same things myself, the minute you hear Chad Cordero you think washed up, damaged goods, scrap heap, etc...Still Chad Cordero between 2005-2007 had the second most saves (113 saves) in the entire National League behind Trevor Hoffman. He is the second youngest player to 100 saves, behind none other then Krod. In 2005 he was an All-Star, Nationals player of the year and Rolaids Reliever of the year with 47 saves and an ERA of 1.82.His last full year was 2007 when he made 76 appearances with 37 saves and an ERA of 3.36. He lost all of 2008 to major shoulder surgery and only started pitching again in July of 2009, but that was only 14 games in different levels of Seattle's system.So he started the year on Seattle's AAA team where he appeared in 14 games with an ERA of 4.12 before getting promoted where he appeared in nine games with a 6.52 ERA before getting demoted and becoming a free agent.Since signing with the Mets he's appeared in eight games...
