pale_hose Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Just wondering if anyone heard any talk about Crede's back...is he day-to-day or is a trip to the DL possible? I know that his back has bothered him for a couple of seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elrockinMT Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 (edited) Surgery is always a last resort, but you have to wonder if Joe shoudn't have taken that option. Maybe at the end of this year. Edited May 23, 2007 by elrockinMT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubba Philips Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 (edited) from what I read after last season surgery to Joe's Back would have been done right after last season's conclusion. It was Joe and Boras's decision to rehab the back and avoid the surgery. If the surgery would have been done Joe would have been able to play in spring training or soon thereafter.

AddisonStSox Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I don't know about a possible DL trip or a day-to-day designation; but, one thing I am certain of is Joe Crede received a frantic call this morning from Scott Boras minutes after he read what Crede mentioned to the paper about a possible back surgery in the off-season. That's a big time no-no, Joe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor would I. Surgery is the last thing you want to do. I was simply making the obvious observation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
