Cecil Cooper. Please dont tell me Tex is better than Cecil Cooper was during his prime.

Cooper was a great hitter in 4 seasons but was pretty ordinary most of his career. He made a lot of contact but rarely walked and does not have the power numbers that tex has. Texiera is a better player than Cooper. Cooper, like Mattingly had a pretty short prime and when looked at over his entire career comes up short.
