From Rotoworld: MLB radio is reporting that the White Sox will acquire Carlos Quentin from the Diamondbacks for Chris Carter. We hope the Diamondbacks are getting a quality pitching prospect in return as well. Quentin's stock is down, especially following shoulder surgery, but he's still a fine bet to have a long career as a regular corner outfielder. Carter, who shares the same name as the first baseman the Diamondbacks traded to Boston in the three-team Wily Mo Pena deal, hit .291/.383/.522 as a 20-year-old in low-A ball last season.

I've also been reading the posts here for a long time now but thought I would throw in Doug's dislike toward the organization after the Benson trade talks surfaced. With him unhappy his performance could have definitely been hurt and also team chemistry. Plus it is always important to get something when you know he will walk in a few months anyway.
