so it looks like chapman will be the closer. sure would like to see what he can do as a starter, but nice to know the game is over when he comes in.

We paid Cordero $12M per season for like 5 years. Chapman's contract averages out to like $4M per season. |

Cordero was overpaid, let Hoover close, that kid is great, but Crusty would never give him an opportunity to succeed.

Completely agree and have made this argument to multiple people. The money a closer makes in the free agent market is equivalent to a 2nd or 3rd starter. Besides the money is already spent, lets use him to the best of his abilities. We will never be an effective starter. Once players time his pitches he becomes ineffective. Facing a guy 3 times a game allows that to happen.
