elrockinMT Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 MLB.Com has an article today that Juan Uribe reportedly signed with the Giants. Crede has been working out for the scouts and the Giants and Rangers are intertested and now the Twinkies may be in the mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 I think this is definitely dated/old news. Juan signed a minor league deal with the possibility of making $1 million if he makes the major league club...and Crede's workout is being hyped by the Boras Machine, but the likelihood of getting guaranteed numbers over $5.1 million is pretty laughable at this point as a concept. Adam Dunn and Abreu might not even get $5 million the way things are going right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it wrong to post this kind of news on this thread? If so I apologize. I don't always look at the Diamond Club as it indicates non-Sox news. I guess Crede and Uribe are non-Sox though.

SoxFan1 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Dunn would be such a perfect pick up for us right now. Have him split time at DH and in the OF and once Thome leaves, we have a full time DH for cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't good, but it's not like he was Macowiak blowing plays out there left and right. I'd say he was about league average. Honestly I think anyone who thought he sucked out there are just letting their memories of his non-existent bat affect their memory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santo=dorf Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Former sox news (which now has turned into other players' news) =/= Sox news. Really, who cares about Crede and Uribe? We didn't offer them arbitration (thank God on Uribe for a chance to get a sandwich pick) so we couldn't negotiate with them until may 1st. Pretty strange to see so many recognizable names still out there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a good IBman and Swish did give 100% no doubt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
