D-backs trade Quentin to White Sox
Arizona receives Minor League first baseman Carter in return
By Steve Gilbert / MLB.com

NASHVILLE -- The D-backs traded outfielder Carlos Quentin to the White Sox for Minor League first baseman Chris Carter on Monday.

Carter, who will turn 21 later this month, was ranked among the White Sox top 10 prospects by Baseball America. A 15th-round pick by Chicago in the 2005 First-Year Player Draft, he has tremendous power and a good idea of the strike zone.

Last year with Kannapolis of the Class A South Atlantic League, Carter hit .291 with 25 homers and 93 RBIs. He drew 67 walks, which led to a .383 on-base percentage, and he slugged .522.

With the tremendous power also comes strikeouts. Carter fanned 112 times in 467 at-bats.

Carlos Quentin is going to be god-like.

What a steal, I mean WTF are the D-Backs thinking.

I guess with Upton seemingly ready to play they wanted to move Quentin... but yeah they kinda sold really low on him.
