fathom Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Jul 13, 2008 -> 12:15 AM) I love how easy it is to remember every error Crede has, but forget how many plays he makes that nobody else does at 3b. What plays are these? Every 3rd baseman makes diving stops during the season. His defense has been pathetic this season, end of story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 12, 2008 -> 07:13 PM) I agree completely with this. It's getting to the point where his defense is costing us more than his offense is helping. He's pretty much a plotting, power hitting designated hitter at this point minus the walks you normally get from such players of course. He'll likely go into the All-Star break with a .790 OPS and 17 or 18 errors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His defense has been pathetic this season, end of story. Fine, he is the worst 3b in the league i suppose. Until someone shows me a list of how many runs he has saved vs. cost, its all BS. There's no stat for "saving runs" and if you honestly can't remember any plays he has made that very few 3b make, then you can't really argue anything.

Jorge Cantu has been the worst defense 3rd baseman. After that, I'd have to say Crede is in the running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
