well, know this - it obviously wasn't picked up on x-ray, which means the fracture must be slight if it is indeed a fracture. They could only see it on MRI. And it appears that he was able to swing a bat and throw a ball with the injury, so it could be a 4-6 week thing where he stabilizes it in a cast.

great imput! I was just thinking that, the dude was just missing homeruns and still getting big hits in Boston playing with the injury. The dude will be back just in time for the playoffs if we make it. I garuntee that.

This means more of Brian Anderson- this guy has shown to hit the ball this year and his defense is still stellar, if anything our defense will be there the rest of the way.

OK last few posts have stabilized my breathing. Thanks for that.

Griff in left, b/c you need to go for the kill against Minn.

 

 

If we had the pitching, i might agree w/ you. But we need to let Uribe be the hole in our lineup. We dont want two.

No, it doesn't. If anything it probably means more of Jerry Owens.

The addition of Griffey could be a very good move now for KW. Hopefully he gets hot down the stretch.

BA's BA is .236...but check this out: OBP is .273

 

in a race for the division, that could mean:

I am seeing a Kirk Gibson-type walk-off in the playoffs.

I'll wait for some sort of team confirmation. But obviously, losing CQ out of the lineup is pretty big. Not a season killer, but a worry.

 

Honestly, I am still MORE worried about Danks' sudden fall-off and apparent tiredness.

His playing time has been extremely erratic and every time he has started I think he has been a really good player. Players with spot time like he has been dont usually hit for high averages. But I can think of more than a few times that BA has been more than adequate filling in for Swisher or Griffey, he has had some key hits and big homeruns this year.

This is kind of what I'm thinking.

 

It cant be worst case scenario fracture if he was still doing that stuff. Unless this slamming-the-bat thing really had an impact.

Honestly, I am still MORE worried about Danks' sudden fall-off and apparent tiredness.

 

 

If we win this year it's with nonstop HRs in the playoffs and adequate pitching.

 

Pitching can still be adequate w/o Danks, especially if Javy keeps up what he's doing.

 

 

 

But looking at our Game Log on espn, all the recent W's for the white sox happen to have twos and what not in the Hit column for Quentin.

Danksy will be fine! He had 2 bad outings... how many did Buerhle/ Vazquez have this year? It happens... he'll rebound, he's not tired, doesnt have dead arm, he just wasnt hitting his spots.

it's a good point about the erratic playing time, but i just dont think that swing has tightened up enough.

 

i'd agree if i didnt think he was a really fundamentally flawed hitter. needs to overhaul that thing still.

Well, sorta glad I didnt pay the 50 bucks for the last month of the MLB package now...

I love how its "seriously" injured on the page, like he had a heart attack or a massive fracture of his back.

 

He a beast and tweaked his wrist a little. If he's out for a few weeks healing, you move the order around, move Paulie up, put Swish or Griff in LF and BA patrols center. Lets finish strong.

I want you there at my funeral.

 

This news is ruining my friday....hopefully all is going to be ok...winning helps heal things faster.

f***.

Bruce Levine confirms Quentin is out for the season.

So he's in tonight's line-up?

 

Seriously, Quentin getting drilled as much as he does really elevates the possibility of this type of thing happening. Its the one thing you have to be concerned about with him, and its been in earlier threads. He needs as much armour as possible from here on out, unless he's going to change his approach.

Damn. That hurts.

There are so many angry things to say right now. I will just go with f***. f***ing f***.

Edited September 5, 200817 yr by GoSox05

so any chance he plays in the playoffs if we get there?

 

can I know griffey played right in cincy, but can he play left for us?

Bruce Levine confirms Quentin is out for the season.

Did he expand at all on that? Is it regular season only? He give any details on the severity?
