KONERKO LEGS OUT A DOUBLE

I hear that Crede turned a triple play before a few years ago against the Angels. Can anyone confirm/deny?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH HAHAHAHA

What's the deal with the White Sox usurping Fresh Prince. I NEED MY DAILY DOSE OF CARLTON.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ May 10, 2006 -> 09:11 PM) The walks eliminated any chance of him having even a decent start. My entire post was regarding the walks...

I did not see any of his start as I had work. However, if you expected him to do well then you're insane. I doubt any knuckleballer in his first career start ever got a single call and was squeezed like there was no tomorrow.

the only angel on the field last night was Joe Crede.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ May 8, 2006 -> 01:49 PM) I'm still a little leery of Joe at the moment. I mean, this is almost too good to be true. I always knew he had it in him, though. I'm gonna wait another month before I deem this the 'new' Joe Crede. This wasn't meant to be a Crede>A Rod or Chavez thread. But to point out how phenomonal 5 strikeouts in 100+ ABs is.

Crede has those 5 strike outs in 108 ABs In fact, doing a quick check at MLB.com, the only players with as few strike outs in a comparable number of ABs are Omar Vizquel(5 in 102 ABs), Moises Alou(4 but in only 82 ABs), Luis Castillo(4 in 92 ABs), Toby Hall(4 in 94 ABs), Placido Polanco(4 in 108 ABs, only one Walk too though) These are the only guys in all of baseball with 5 or less strikeouts in more than 80 At Bats. And only one of them could be considered a power hitter(Alou). Big props to Joe.

5 Strike Outs so far this year. ONLY FIVE STRIKE OUTS. That is less than half of any other regular player on this team, in fact Mackowiak even has 12 in almost half of the at bats. Not only is he pounding the ball, he's making contact. Amazing year for him in every possible way so far.

haha

JOEEEEEE CREDE

he's obviously just toying with the pitcher

does he homer first or second pitch?

they do not know what theyre getting themselves into

Mackowiak seems to enjoy putting baseballs into dirt towards opposing players as quickly as he possibly can. I argue that he's just trying to take out their knees.

The ball fears the wrath of Crede.

Joe "God" Crede is up, no worries.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ May 7, 2006 -> 01:33 PM) That makes total sense. It's a valid argument. When we have subs in the lineup, are winning totals are considerably lower. But the backups allow our starting lineup to be well rested for those 10 games or so when they're undefeated... or something Pablo Ozuna: 13 games Jim Thome: 13 Home Runs COINCIDENCE? I THINK NOT.

QUOTE(Felix @ May 7, 2006 -> 01:30 PM) That is HORRIBLE reasoning. Plus, he's on a 8 game hitting streak (I think its 8 at least) where he's hitting .450+ I still don't have confidence in him making contact. If anything, it was a bad call because Thome was on deck. Nice idea, didn't pay off. s*** happens. If the squeeze is successful, not one of you would be complaining.

QUOTE(fathom @ May 7, 2006 -> 01:29 PM) No chance. You have to commit to the guy getting the bunt down. That's why it's called a suicide. you damn pessimists and your logic

QUOTE(Felix @ May 7, 2006 -> 01:26 PM) that sucked.. why bunt with Iguchi, who is killing the ball recently? oh well, tie game Because he's still only killing the ball 35% of the time... and striking out the other 65% of the time.

Bump.
