May 15, 200619 yr yes yes, I am part of 'the enemy' but after watching Crede this weekend rob what seemed like 15 extra base hits I have to tip my cap that play on Cuddyer earlier today (Mon) was one of the best 3rd baseman plays I have seen
May 15, 200619 yr QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ May 15, 2006 -> 04:29 PM) If he keeps hitting like he has, he'll certainly get that gold glove. that's the sad truth. Offense should have no bearing but it does. I think what happened to Crede in the post season has given him tremendous confidence. And the fact that he's always been a second half player makes this great start even more exciting!
May 15, 200619 yr Watching Joe Crede for the past season and a 1/4 has been a pleasure to watch both defensively and offensively. For the amount of money he's making, he's one of the best value players in the LEAGUE right now.

May 16, 200619 yr he's right there with any third baseman in the league -- and he's got more rings than ARod.

May 16, 200619 yr QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ May 15, 2006 -> 08:20 PM) So does Timo Perez whats your point? That Timo Perez is the best third baseman in baseball today?
May 16, 200619 yr QUOTE(MEANS @ May 15, 2006 -> 06:28 PM) what's Crede's contract situation, is he a F/A next year? Ya, IIRC we have his rights for one more season.
May 16, 200619 yr It's great to see Crede fulfil the promise so many had for him. I love having a great defensive third baseman on the team. Now he's hitting the bleep out of the ball and should make the all-star team unless he goes into a slump. What a star!
May 16, 200619 yr QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ May 15, 2006 -> 10:34 PM) Ya, IIRC we have his rights for one more season. I think we have him through 2008 actually, but I could be wrong. Kalapse would know for sure.
May 16, 200619 yr QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ May 15, 2006 -> 07:34 PM) Ya, IIRC we have his rights for one more season. No. Joe Crede has gone through 1 of his 3 years of arbitration eligibility. If he is not signed, he will be Arb. eligible after 2006 and 2007. He will be a free agent after 2008. So we have him for 2 years after this year.
May 16, 200619 yr right now you should just be thankful that liriano is FINALLY in the rotation. i swear it looks like he has better stuff than Santana
May 16, 200619 yr QUOTE(Felix @ May 15, 2006 -> 10:13 PM) I think we have him through 2008 actually, but I could be wrong. Kalapse would know for sure. Awww how sweet. He's a FA after '08 as usual Gage is handing out false information.

May 16, 200619 yr Joe hasn't looked this good since Aug/Sept of '02. It's all about maintaining this level over the course of the year. I think he can do it.
