Red Sox, Angels, Reds Talking To Francisco Cordero

By Ben Nicholson-Smith | December 21, 2011 at 8:42pm CDT

WEDNESDAY: The Red Sox are backing off since they aren't eager to commit to an aging reliever who will require a multiyear deal, according to John Tomase of the Boston Herald. The Red Sox would have offered more than one year at a certain price, but the sides couldn't come to an agreement.

TUESDAY, 7:47pm: Cordero prefers to return to the Reds, according to Jon Paul Morosi of FOXSports.com, who adds that the Rockies are not a suitor for the right-hander.

4:45pm: The Reds and Red Sox aren't the only clubs involved. The Angels and another team have been in dialogue with Cordero, according to Alex Speier of WEEI.com. "We’ve been exploring multiyear deals and we’re very confident that’s where we’re going to end up,” Stringfellow told Speier. “The teams that we’ve spoken to, none of them have balked at that of the four remaining clubs.” Cordero will only consider closing roles.

1:28pm: The Red Sox have had increased dialogue with Francisco Cordero this week, according to ESPN.com's Jerry Crasnick (on Twitter). The Reds have resumed talks with Cordero and remain interested in re-signing him.

The 36-year-old posted a 2.45 ERA with 5.4 K/9, 2.8 BB/9 and a 50% ground ball rate in 69 2/3 innings for the Reds this past season. Cordero reached the 30-save plateau for the fifth consecutive season, saving 37 games. However, his average fastball velocity dropped to 93 mph and peripheral stats such as xFIP (4.14) and SIERA (3.91) suggest his 2.45 ERA may be artificially low. Agent Bean Stringfellow represents the three-time All-Star.

        His K/9 sank like a rock and has fallen every season since 2007. The only reason his ERA was good because his BABIP was .214 (career avg. .294)

        Paying $8-10 million a year for 36 year old with a ~4.20 xFIP the last three years seems ill-advised (at best). His SIERA is almost a full run higher than the remaining available closers. That should terrify Red Sox fans.
        I’ve gotta think this is some sort of diversion.

      Melancon almost lost his bowels on the mound when he was with the Yankees, especially against Boston. I’m not sold that in one year closing for the worst team in baseball in a football market in a mostly weak division Mark Melancon is all of a sudden a pillar of confidence in the toughest place to play in the hardest division with the best hitters.

    I’m happy that the Sox increased dialogue with Francisco Cordero.  He understands big words too. It was embarrassing when the Sox didn’t think he could understand the language and did things like talk louder or talk in choppy sentences simultaneously while using a form of miming/charades for conversation.

    I’m not insanely fond of the guy, but I’m open to the idea. He’s not an elite reliever or anything, but he can come out there and not get blown out.

        Shutdown/Meltdowns. Basically it’s a metric Fangraphs developed relatively recently to indicate the frequency of a reliever to either shut the door or completely fall apart. Not nearly as effective as looking at actual peripherals, but it beats the save system.

      Admittedly, I don’t follow him religiously or anything, but I fail to see an epic issue. He’s not lights out or anything, but he’s far from terrible. He’s kept his walk rate below 2 per 9 for three years running. He’s got a bit of homeritis, but isn’t Cincinnati a bit of a homer friendly park? His K/9 is awful, but as long as he’s keeping the ball on the ground, he’ll get you by.

      There are much worse relievers out there.

        I think you’re on the wrong stat page… Cordero has never posted a BB/9 below 2, let alone for three years running.  He’s also not an especially ground ball heavy pitcher (with 2011’s 50% being an outlier).

          Right page, wrong stat, I was looking at his K/BB. Looking at THAT, suddenly I’m less interested.

          Still, if he could be gotten cheap, I’d consider him as a middle reliever, the SD:MD ratio’s okay.

            I don’t really buy into the Shutdown/Meltdown thing as much as I buy into ugly walk rates and poor strikeout rates from my relievers.

            I’d much rather spread the wealth on a bunch of risk/reward relievers or hand the middle innings to prospects than hand someone like Cordero upwards of $5M/year (and I can’t imagine he’d even be that cheap).

            There’s just no way he ends up being a bargain or even neutral value given the saves on his resume.

        If you watched him the last few years why we call him things like Oh-No Coco and Cardiac Cordero. His ERA shows a different story. Look at his xFIP. He always finds a way to make the 9th interesting, whether it be giving up bases loaded or giving up 2 runs with a 3 run lead. He also goes deep into counts more often then not, just making it more intense. He was very good numbers wise all year last year other than the week before the All Star break. Don’t expect another ERA next year that starts in the 2s.

          Ruben Amaro’s not looking for a closer anymore, I don’t see the saves increasing his value anymore. Fewer and fewer GMs are valuing saves as a thing worth extra money, so I don’t imagine Cordero will get more than $5MM for one year in this market and even that is stretching it in my mind. If he could be had for $2/3MM, I’d consider him for middle relief. I doubt he gets a better offer.

    My friends and I call him.. “coco-oh-hell no” cordero. He makes things to exciting at the end of games.. when you look at his stats they are not bad. However, i want a closer who slams the door shut in the 9th inning not one who allows runners on and making the game drama. As a reds fan..I hope you guys have him and hope he does well for you because i hate the yankees!ha.

      It’s funny, almost every team’s fans say this about their closer.  No one comes in every time there is a save situation and doesn’t allow a runner to reach. 

       It just looks worse when it’s the 9th inning and you’re up by 1 and you allow a runner to reach.  Because then the “winning run” comes to the plate.  So then there’s drama.  When in fact, the pitcher had a whip of 1.000 that game and is getting crap for “making the game drama”

          Can’t be under your stipulation. If the money is close to the same, you take Madson every time.

          Madson’s over five years younger, gets more ground balls, walks less batters and his numbers are trending in the right direction compared to Cordero. On the last few years, he’s also striking out a lot more batters than Cordero.

          I’d consider Cordero in a middle relief capacity on a very cheap guaranteed deal, but if both of them cost the same, I wouldn’t touch Cordero with a ten foot pole over Madson.

          Yes, he is that much better.

          Over the past 3 years he has had a far superior strikeout rate, walk rate, ground ball %, FIP… basically everything you want from a late-innings reliever.

        No.. I’m hearing more luxury tax issues. I think that the Red Sox would have signed a few players already had it not been for that. It’s not worth it to overpay for free agents then pay luxury tax on top of that. Hence why they are going after such players with team friendly contracts such as Bailey and Gio etc.

    I think it’s a great idea. Madson has always been a set up guy who was forced to be a closer based on injuries and being the best viable option. He did perform fairly well. That said, I wouldn’t throw 3 years at him. If he’d sign for 2, great. I think signing Cordero for 2 and prob $7MM per year is a better allocation of $ than the $8-9/yr at 3 years Madson will get.

        Lidge was the closer because he was getting paid an obscene amount. and i’m fairly certain Contreras was only the closer because he had been pitching very well to that point in the season and Madson went down with an injury to his foot or something.

    Here’s to hoping the Red Sox are going public on this pursuit in an attempt to remove another team from competition in the Closer market.  If you can give Ryan Mad…ahem excuse me, Scot Boras no other alternatives then you gain leverage in contract negotiations. I dont see LAA splurging on Madson when they have Walden. I dont see the Twins, White Sox, Padres or Mets as valid competition, financially.  Outside of that, every team has addressed the CL position to a certain extent. 

    In short, go public on Cordero, force the Reds hand and get them to re-sign him.  Then you are practically left with Madson who has NO OTHER ALTERNATIVE.  At that point, you got a chance to talk Boras into a 2yr/$20-24m with a club option for a 3rd year.  The option may have to include a $2-3m buyout but with way Closer market started, you’re making out like bandits.

      As long as Madson is willing to do a short-term deal, he’ll get the most money per year from the Red Sox.  They didn’t mind paying Papelbon a ton of money as long as it was only 1 year deals.  It’s the long-term 3+ year deals that scare the Red Sox away, and rightfully so.

      Can’t force the Reds to do anything. When they do their budget, its set in stone and never exceeded. Cordero has basically a take it or leave it offer with very little negotiating room from Jockety. If he doesn’t take it, they’ll either work another trade for a cheaper option or go with an internal candidate

    Signing him to a multi-year deal is bad enough, but seeing that he only wants to be a closer makes it even worse.  Please stay away Red Sox!

    I think the Marshall trade by the Reds can limit Fransico’s return to Cincy

      I think Coco is going to have to come down on his price and jsut sign with Cincy since the sox are out.
