Joe was 0-3 going into the 9th today.  He got an IF hit that resulted in moving a run into 3rd that Jose would not have.

 

 

At best that point is debatable and I'm not sure if it even matters. Let's not fool ourselves into thinking that infield hits are a big part of Joe's game. They aren't much of Jose's game either but I would bet that Jose gets more of them. Still, I don't think it really matters.

Whats that put Crede now... 8 game hitting streak... all he needs is 20 more :gosox3:

Joe Crede...Jose Valentin...

Jose Valentin...Joe Crede...

 

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm...

 

My answer would be....

 

GREG NORTON!!!

Jose, only for the sole reason he bats lefty now.

I saw him bat righty and lefty vs a lefty in the same game last week but I do believe for the most part he's back to switch hitting.

At the same price, I would take Valentin over Crede in a heartbeat. Very underrated defensively, has been a clutch player his entire career, a very good leader, a very smart ballplayer all around.

 

When considering Jose @ 3.5 mill, and Crede at $500K, if that...I'm gonna take Crede in a heartbeat.

 

Or maybe I will take Valentin in the first half and Crede in the second? I'm not sure yet :bang

White Sox Roster Magic Formula

 

But by having Crede we got

Crede made about $350,000 last season. Jose about 10X that. This season Crede moves up to $400,000. The money we saved at third got us

Crede. They both hit .220, but Crede will make plenty less errors in the field over the course of the season. He also makes contact more often.

 

Valentin has turned into Jose Hernandez.

Jose's time here was done. He needed to move on. Crede is my pick.
