SSH2005 Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Swing year for Crede Future may ride on ability to continue late-season success http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseb...i-sportsnew-hed Crede said his back no longer is a problem, thanks to a strength program he wasn't able to start until the end of the 2005 season.

Milkman delivers Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Eh, not sure how much I believe this or the story about Hermanson's back. I'll have to see it to believe it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Backs are funny things... Most problems with them don't go away that easily. I would be willing to bet we see at least one of Hermy or Crede relapse with problems, if not both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retro1983hat Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Thus the reason Rob M is on the team. Figure to see Mack on the field for basically as much as a starter. He will be filling in for someone almost every day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to see it to believe it. Herniated discs don't heal. They flare up occassionally, but never really go away. I bet you can take the stress of off them by losing extra weight around your waist and by strengthening your abs and lower back muscles.

Outfield glove? Check. First baseman's glove? ....maybe.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on how many pitchers we carry and how many outfielders/catchers we carry, it's possible there will be room for Gload also on the roster, which would cover the 1b glove. But who knows at this point. Depends on how a lot of people perform. Anywho, with both Thome and Konerko, we're in far better territory at 1b than we were last year, where PK played 158 games.

Jimbo's Drinker Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 I am worried that Crede will have a career year and Boras will have him sign a gigantic deal elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense, especially since the Sox have the rights to him until 2008. Don't worry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSH2005 Posted February 22, 2006 Author Share Posted February 22, 2006 http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb...t=.jsp&c_id=cws Back to form: When Joe Crede came off the 15-day disabled list on Sept. 10 last season, recovering from a fracture to the tip of the middle finger on his throwing hand, the White Sox third baseman was a little worried as to how his balky back would respond to the inactivity. Crede hit .379 in September, two herniated discs and all, and was the team's most valuable player in the field from start to finish during the playoffs. After a few days of hitting in Arizona, Crede reports the same solid results for his back. "I've gone through a bunch of sessions out here already and everything feels good," Crede said. "I'm ready to go. I felt healthy and strong at the end of last year, and I feel the same way now." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan4life_2007 Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Good news on Joe. However, it's a luxury to have a guy like Mack just in case something happens. Trading for Mack might turn out to be the best move of all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
