Aybar for Crede?
mlbtraderumors.com is suggesting the White Sox might need a new SS with Uribe's issues. They are suggesting (via Gammons) that the Sox might be interested in swapping Crede for Aybar.
We don't have a lot of use for Aybar, but I'd hope we could squeeze a little better than Crede for him.
Not sure if I like this idea... Plus it just adds more players at 1B/3B.
Of course, Gammons IS an idiot, so this might not be true...

Why would anyone not do that trade?
If his back problem don't flare up, it would be a steal.

I R O N Y
Of course that is overvaluing him, but the fact that he gets lost in the shuffle is inidicative of how deep the Angels farms system is...

A little better?
That's way overvaluing him. You're as bad as Stoneman

Do it
by cardinalwraith on Jan 15, 2007 11:23 AM PST reply actions 0 recs
absolutely do this trade
When is Aybar ever going to crack our starting limeup? He wont, so why not get some value back for him that could help us next year...
I would bet that all players competing for the 3b job will come to spring in shape and ready to battle for that starting job:
Figgy
D-mac
Hillenbrand
Crede
Quin (long,long shot)

I can't imagine Chicago doing that trade.
At the same time, if this proposal was actually presented to Stoneman I question whether he'd think it fair; he'd probably feel insulted that the Sox aren't offering Jermaine Dye or something like that...

No shit...
Truth is - I don't see how the Sox would do this (young proven power 3B vs young great glove SS prospect) - that'd be lunacy.

This would be a spring training trade
and
once the Angels realize there's only one SS position on the field, and nowhere for Aybar to play from Low A to the Majors. This would also give the Chisox an opportunity to really check out Erick.
Because Crede is a Proven Veteran, my guess is that Stoneman would have to throw in another prospect to finish the deal. However, his service time isn't as long as one would think; it looks like Crede will be a free agent after 2008. Let me know if I'm reading that wrong, though.

Throw in Moseley.

this may not be just internet BS...
If Juan Uribe's future is cloudy, the word is that the White Sox may go after Angels shortstop Erick Aybar. With Josh Fields coming at third, they can trade Joe Crede, if the Angels will take Crede knowing he can become a free agent at the end of the year.

"MAY go after"
I'm getting excited about the possibility, but I wouldn't bet on it.

No way
If its McPherson, lets do it. If its Figgins, I'm OK with it. If the rumors go back to Ervin Santana, then never take a call from Kenny Williams again.

That's insane
If they want Aybar they have to give us Crede and Thome, while taking back Hillenbrand.
Better.
