Good to hear.

Here's what I posted in another thread last week:

Quentin would be a great acquisition, Petco is smothering him right now.

Isn't Quentin the guy that took out Greinke? He should be suspended from baseball. I hate that guy.

It seems that the O's are intent on finding a DH. I will be surprised if Wednesday passes without an addition.

KRod and Quentin. We have a team of real saints.

[Say O!]

Lot of dough for a guy who is only good for 100-110 games/year.

He'd be a great fit. Power, walks alot, and hits both righties and lefties.

Could be a hell of an under-the-radar pickup. I have him on one of my fantasy teams, and he's done very well for me despite a very low ownership rate in other leagues. He has better plate discipline than you might expect(96:67 K:BB over his last 554 ABs), and his road numbers would suggest a potential breakout if he were to move to the smaller parks of the AL East. Let's do it.

Honestly he should be in prison for assault for what he did to Greinke. If any of us did that, we'd be locked up.

Not gonna have a team full of Choir Boys. Do you really think right now all 40 players on the Orioles roster are Choir Boys? Brob Roids I rather have Quentin and his fighting ways over a cheater.

Weren't roids legal when Brob did it? So how exactly was he cheating?

Patton and his DWI Let's get rid of him he's no saint.

Not that I really care that much, but Roids and a DUI don't compare to beating women and breaking other mens bones.

What Krod did was bad and get's no pass. Quentin fighting with Greinke is baseball. They had a long history going back to when they played with Royals and White Sox.

Tell that to my buddy from HS that was killed by a drunk driver.
