Is it out of the realm of possibility that Quentin is traded, yet someone like, say, A-Ram is acquired?
U beat me to it.... Have viciedo in right and aram at 3rd
It would not surprise me if Kenny traded Quentin for prospects let viciedo take over in right and add payroll in a separate trade to improve third base production as well

I think if/when Carlos goes, a ton of people here are going to be disappointed in the package.
i dont see why like others have pointed out Viciedo can fill in his spot like nothing ever changed and if we can get a prospect or two then why not do it to fill other voids on the team, especially if KW doesnt believe this team can do it this year....hell even if they win the division we wont get out of the first round with this lineup

Per Rotoworld
USA Today's Bob Nightengale reports that the Phillies have been scouting Carlos Quentin.
Nothing new there they have been interested in CQ for awhile now

I just hate how we know that Jake just blows after 70 pitches and Humber is in the bullpen and we just know Ozzie has no idea what he needs to do here.
We are leading one of the best pitchers in MLB. We are completely hopeless at adding on.
GET THE BULLPEN UP!!
..not gonna happen and we'll all regret it soon enough.
Haha I agree we can't keep him out there just bcuz it's the 4th inning if it's a 1 run gm and you have Humber in the pen tonight you bring him in
QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 08:18 PM)
Peavy right at the 70 pitch mark when he crashes HARD.
Ozzie needs Humber to get up and come in this game we can't keep peavy in there in this gm too important and we have the lead

If STL trades Rasmus, they will need another OF.
Jackson, Thornton, and de aza for rasmus? He is in the lineup for stl tonight tho

That'd be a horrible move.
How? At this point it's a blessing noone is going to take his contract and it gets him off the field
QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 07:52 PM)
I dream of a game where Adam Dunn hits three home runs. Please let that dream come true today.
We need a gm with 2 before we can have a gm with 3 Lol

And it's gonna be possibly harder to win if he doesn't come around and Konerko continues to get nothing to hit because he is being protected by a guy batting half his weight.
Well we won't win it without him hitting the rest of our offense isnt consistent enough to make up for all of the holes we have so you roll the dice and hope he turns the corner especially with his last few at bats he is battling out there you have to give him that
QUOTE (Paulstar @ Jul 26, 2011 -> 07:44 PM)
I've been asking this for a long time. And while I'm glad he hit a two run home run, it is bitter sweet because this secures the cleanup spot for him for the next month.
It will be hard to win it without him maybe this intense series will put a little spark in his play and he will come around (praying)
