Orioles have eye on Carlos Quentin

[Tx Oriole]

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

If he is I agree.

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

I don't believe he meant it that way.

[Crazysilver03]

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.

Greinke got injured the way he did by trying to shoulder check him.

I know the team needs another hitter but right now I would rather they get

another pitcher.

I think hitting is a bigger need right now, though I wouldn't have said it a week ago. We cannot get a hit with RISP to save our lives. Whether its Quentin, Morse, Morneau whomever....we need a bat! I'm all for getting Peavy if TPIR, but Boston will out bid us.

If any of us threw a baseball at someone, wed be locked up for assault too. How is what Grienks did any less criminal then what Quenten did? If that happened off the field, Quenten was more of self defense then assault.

I believe Greinke hitting him was an accident. What you are saying is equivalent to getting out of the car and bodyslamming someone for causing a fender bender to the back of your car.

Carlos Quentin would hit home runs all over Camden yards.

He's hitting in maybe the least friendly hitters park in baseball.

In Camden yards he'd be crushing it. I'd fully support this signing.

The two have a ton of history together.

[Norfolk orioles]

You realize Greinke had a history of beaning Quentin constantly. He threw at him like once a game every time he saw him.

Eventually Quentin got sick of it and charged the mound, but he wasn't going out there to break Greinke's collarbone, it was just a fluke thing that happened.

Greinke was no saint.

The two have a ton of history together.

It was a run run game, and the only history they have is Greinke had beaned him before. But that is nothing new for Quentin. He led the league in getting hit and he only played 86 games. He gets hit all the time by everyone.

On multiple occasions. Greinke was nearly as culpable in the whole ordeal.

This is a fairly ridiculous statement. He charged the mound, as players are wont to do from time to time. He didn't take a bat to Greinke's collarbone.

Any disdain I might have for Quentin is far outweighed by my desire to see the line-up improved, which Quentin would do. He's crushing the ball away from Petco.

Not a good guy, but the Orioles have already started down this road with Rodriguez and it's only for a couple months.

He definitely can hit.
