Greg The Bull Luzinski Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Just so long as we don't have to watch Citron and Mackowaik "playing" 3B and firing the ball into the 1B dugout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beast Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 This could be the greatest thing that's happened to our club, KW is now forced to bring up Fields and see if he can fill Credes "big" shoes to fill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilJester99 Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 (edited) We at least get to see Cintron at 3B tonight...Yikes. Sox should have traded Crede in the offseason because his value will never have been higher. Edited June 5, 2007 by EvilJester99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg The Bull Luzinski Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 On a related thought, putting Crede on the DL makes him literally impossible to trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad all around. At least one of our top position prospects in the system (one of the few) plays 3rd. I say bring up Fields now...

The Ginger Kid Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 I feel bad for Joe. He was starting to blister the ball then got hurt. He hasn't been the same at the plate since that cubs series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hasn't been the same at the plate since that cubs series. I'm afraid I can't return the sentiment. As far as I'm concerned, Joe basically asked for this to happen. He went with Scott Boras's advice on what the best way to deal with his back was (rehab) instead of listening to the advice of team doctors (do the surgery & get it actually fixed).

I think that the team would have fully evaluated that if they were going to reccommend that Mr. Crede have the surgery. I can't imagine the team would tell Mr. Crede to do something that they thought had a high probability of making it so that he wouldn't be our 3rd baseman this year.

jackie hayes Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jun 5, 2007 -> 07:41 PM) back surgery is so risky though. And there's no going back. Doing the rehab now, he can always get the surgery in the future. He did what he thought was best for his career, I can't really fault him.

I'm sure Boras did a full evaluation, too. It's in everyone's best interest that Joe plays well. Just a difference of opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a difference of opinion. And, I think in the end, it sure looks based on the rapid recurrence of back problems within a month or so of the start of this season, combined with the incredibly poor performance of Mr. Crede this season, like the team has been proven fully correct and Mr. Boras proven fully wrong in his assessment.

RockRaines Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Well. Bring Josh up, hope he develops defense like Crede did, and put him in the 9 hole for a little pop and speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll never know. Haven't there been posts here from people who've gone through it, or who knew someone who did, who said they'd only go under the knife as a last resort? (I know I've read things like this somewhere...) Those things have changed my mind quite a bit on this. Whoever's right, I don't think Crede was being unreasonable.

whitesoxfan101 Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 You can't say the team was proven fully correct about Crede at all since they didn't trade him last winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
