SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic -- Francisco Cordero criticized the Texas Rangers for trading him, saying he was grateful to have ended up with the Milwaukee Brewers.

Cordero was 7-4 with a 4.81 ERA and six saves with the Rangers, who dealt him to the Brewers on July 28 along with outfielders Kevin Mench and Laynce Nix, and minor league left-hander Julian Cordero -- no relation to Francisco. All-Star outfielder Carlos Lee and outfielder Nelson Cruz went to the Rangers.

It's just Cordero blowing off steam at the Rangers for giving up on him. Now that Lee left the trade does look pretty bad for the Rangers. Since they have nothing to show for it except Cruz and he might not win a starting job in 2007.
