June 16, 200520 yr Did he get a promotion from Cruddy?? :huh <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yep, he is Cruddy when he bats under .230. Since he is now batting over .240, he is Crediocre.

June 16, 200520 yr What's next... InCREDEulous? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If he gets his AVG up to .270 he would be inCREDEble.
June 16, 200520 yr Prior to our San Diego series, I had no opinion on Burroughs. Now, I think he's a total dog, and with an attitude to match. I'd be stunned if we traded for him.

June 16, 200520 yr Crede>>>>Burroughs. Like his bat or not Crede plays an excellent steadying third base. He makes many difficult plays look easy, and saves his pitchers tons of runs during the course of a season. Especially with two groundball pitchers in Garland and Buehrle, we would regret not having Crede in the line up, unless we got a top 5 third baseman to replace him.
June 16, 200520 yr Sean is almost equal to Joe but minus some of the power (mentioned before)... both are classic high-profile minor leaguers that play the hot corner and have yet to live up to their expectations in the majors so far... I expect the Sox to hold on to Crede, especially if they are looking at guys like Burroughs who may not be half the player Joe could be...
June 16, 200520 yr Sean Burroughs cannot hold Crediocre's jock. The guy has 0 power, and the only reason we'd be looking at a 3Bman would be to upgrade the offensive output we're getting from that position. I would puke if we traded for Burroughs.
June 16, 200520 yr QUOTE(jackie hayes @ Jun 15, 2005 -> 11:10 PM) Well, what the hell. After all the work I put into my "Eric Chavez is a White Sox player RIGHT NOW, By the time you read this Chavez is wearing a Sox uni and has already hit 4 hr in one game for us" thread. I mean, it's just suggestive is all.
June 16, 200520 yr QUOTE(Jabroni @ Jun 16, 2005 -> 11:42 AM) Wasn't DJ saying that he was injured or something? DJ was saying he had to have been injured after the way he half jogged to 1st. Though he recently had gotten off the DL, if he was hurt as bad as he ran, he shouldn't have been in the lineup. It's hard to say if he was dogging it. But I wasn't impressed by the way he played that weekend
June 16, 200520 yr QUOTE(Cubs Suck23 @ Jun 15, 2005 -> 07:59 PM) Mike Murphy mentions the the sox are looking to make a trade for Burroghs of SD I'm a Burroughs fan, but this stuff is purely speculation by a writer, imo. They identify a need and look at players that could fit the need. I'm sure Kenny does the same thing and I'd guess Burroughs is one of the names that has came up. However, Ozzie's quotes on Crede seemed like a pretty good indication that he'll be here for a while.

If Crede continues his month of June, then he won't be traded, but if he goes back to his .220 or whatever, KW isn't going sit there watching Crede stink...

Hopefully he won't sit their and watch Crede stink.
June 17, 200520 yr Over his short career, Crede's 2 best months are traditionally August and September... Lifetime in August for Crede: 246 At Bats .276 avg 17 Homers 42 RBI .865 OPS Lifetime in September for Crede: .310 avg 297 At Bats 11 Homers 54 RBI .848 OPS Unless we get a huge upgrade via trade, just keep the guy.
June 17, 200520 yr QUOTE(YASNY @ Jun 16, 2005 -> 04:05 AM) C'mon people. Stop titling these threads so it reads as if it's a done deal. I have to agree with YASNY here. Crazy rumor anyway considering SD is in a race also and just why would they start trading their starters? The Sox wouldn't be making an upgrade anyway.
June 17, 200520 yr QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Jun 16, 2005 -> 07:24 PM) whats his october avg How many games has he played in october?
June 17, 200520 yr QUOTE(sayitaintso @ Jun 16, 2005 -> 11:39 PM) How many games has he played in october? 20 ABs in 6 games.
June 17, 200520 yr Im stickin with crede here burroughs average might be higher but ill take joes glove and power over his average any day
June 17, 200520 yr Burroughs was such a highly-touted prospect and he hasn't turned into anything special YET. I dunno, maybe I'm wrong. I rarely see Padre's games...
