Quentin most likely out for regular season

White Sox outfielder Carlos Quentin will have season ending wrist surgery after fracturing his wrist in frustration. Quentin hit his wrist with a bat in disgust after fouling off a pitch during Monday’s game. Quentin will have a screw inserted into his wrist and will be reevaluated a few weeks from now, most likely at the end of the regular season. It is still unknown whether he will play in the playoffs.

Quentin has had a breakout, MVP calibere season in 2008 hitting .100 points higher in OBP, .200 more in SLG, and hitting 31 more home runs. Quentin has also improved his batting eye significantly this year leading to some of those improvements. His loss will hurt your chances if you are close in a race, but for most teams you will be fine.
