Quentin Fractures Wrist, Puts Season In Jeopardy


Chicago White Sox left-fielder and potential AL MVP Carlos Quentin broke his right-wrist somehow yesterday, and will have surgery to place a screw in the bone. It will sideline him for at least a couple weeks, and probably end his season. There's speculation that he could of broke it punching a clubhouse locker, or an incident where he slammed his bat on the ground after an at-bat. Either way, it's a sad reason to put your MVP candidacy and teams playoff chances in jeopardy.

Chicago begins a 3-game series with the Angels tonight, and have a 1 1/2 game lead over the Minnesota Twins in the AL Central.
