The Carlos Quentin Activated from DL

I am surprised that nobody has mentioned the obviously differences in TCQ's batting stance and approach. His stance and the way he is holding the bat and his upper body has turned very Pujols-like

Best player? Based on less than one season of baseball?

Our best player is Dye, no doubt. Arguments can even be made for Thome and Konerko.

 

and you would be wrong. A healthy tcq is a top 10-20 player in all of baseball.

LOL, I love when people respond to a purely subjective description with absolute statements like "you are wrong", as if there is a right or wrong on the subject.

Haha, well you can tell me when that happens, then.

 

The guy puts in part of a season, and he's suddenly the best player on our team over guys who have consistently put in their time and produced.

Carlos really looks like he's playing hurt, and having him do that is really not doing anything for this team.

I think they are right that he re-aggrivated it on that sudden stop making the catch in foul territory.

Then Carlos hits a home run tonight. I swear there is no figuring this team out.

I think he just wasn't all the way healthy which is why he's been struggling.

FWIW, I bumped this thread after the homer.

Today was the first day he didn't look healthy though. Before today he was moving around just fine.

maybe he needs a rest?

Why Konerko is Dh'ing and Quentin wasn't on turf is beyond me.

 

Actually Thome did not play any of the three games and they somehow felt Quentin should still have been playing on the turf...

Looks like he's holding the bat the same to me. Top hand with the thumb pointed up which always struck me as odd since most hitters wrap the fingers and thumb around the bat. .
