MLB Trade Rumors: Carlos Quentin Could Be Traded, Braves Interested

Quentin is arbitration-eligible for 2012, which would be his final year before free agency. Viciedo is currently hitting .307/.365/.500 in triple-A, with 16 home runs in 374 at-bats -- pretty similar to Quentin’s line in the majors of .262/.353/.510 mark, with 20 home runs in 347 at-bats. Of course, one’s in the majors and one’s in the minors, so it won’t be a clean lineup swap.

Like Braves’ Fredi G said yesterday, get player here and he’ll worry about where to play him. Would apply to Carlos Quentin.
