Bill Center of the San Diego Union-Tribune speculates that Carlos Quentin is on the Padres "list of possibilities," and that GM Josh Byrnes is actively seeking trades with a number of teams. The White Sox are committed to getting younger and willing to move valuable pieces but it remains to be seen whether the Padres are interested in meeting their asking price. Quentin is coming off a season that saw him hit .254/.340/.499 with 24 homers and 77 RBI, and would be an immediate upgrade over the platoon of Will Venable and Chris Denorfia. The Nationals have also expressed interest in acquiring Quentin this offseason.
