Carlos Quentin (knee) could be available to pinch-hit Tuesday. Quentin is not in the lineup for the sixth straight game due to soreness in his surgically-repaired right knee, but he has no plans to shut things down for the season. "I'm going to go out and get a lot more activity," Quentin said prior to batting practice Tuesday. "If it responds well, then we'll be closer." Even if Quentin does return, the Pads figure to rest him regularly. Fantasy owners shouldn't rely on him down the stretch.
