Joseph Taylor Crede (pronounced CREE-dee, born April 26, 1978) is an American former professional baseball third baseman. He played in Major League Baseball for the Chicago White Sox (2000–2008) and the Minnesota Twins (2009). Crede was drafted by the White Sox in the fifth round of the 1996 MLB draft and made his debut with the team in 2000. Crede was a member of the White Sox when they won the World Series in 2005, marking their first championship in 88 years. Crede made his major league debut on September 12, 2000 against the Detroit Tigers, entering as a defensive replacement at third base and flying out in his first at-bat. He split 2001 and 2002 between the majors and minors before playing in his first full season in 2003. In 2005, Crede batted .252 with 22 home runs and 62 RBI in 132 games. He also was a clutch performer in the playoffs, hitting several game winning hits during the White Sox World Series run. In 2006, he broke out with a career-high 30 home runs, 92 RBI and a .283 average in 150 games, winning the Silver Slugger Award for third base. In 2007, Crede was limited to 47 games due to injury, and finished the season batting just .216 with four home runs and 22 RBI. In 2008, Crede hit a grand slam on Opening Day against the Twins. After starting the season batting .256 with 16 home runs and 49 RBI, Crede made the 2008 MLB All-Star Game as a reserve. However, he was injured for most of the second half, and finished the season hitting .248 with 17 home runs and 55 RBI in 97 games. Both his 2007 and 2008 seasons had been cut short by back injuries. On October 30, 2008, Crede elected free agency. On February 21, 2009, Crede signed a one-year, $2.5 million contract with the Minnesota Twins that included incentives that could make the deal up to $7 million. In his one season with the Twins, Crede had a .225 batting average and recorded 15 home runs and 48 RBI in 90 games.
