Quentin Aggravates Injured Foot - DL Trip [UN]Likely?
ANAHEIM, Calif. - White Sox left fielder Carlos Quentin left Monday night's game in the top of the first inning after hurting his foot while running out an RBI double.
Quentin, who is coping with plantar fasciitis in his left foot, limped halfway to first base and barely reached second. He was assisted off the field by trainer Herm Schneider and assistant trainer Brian Ball.
Brian Anderson pinch-ran for Quentin, whose hit put the Sox ahead 3-0 over the Los Angeles Angels.
It's just plantar fasciitis, though - should be no problem. Clearly just needs to stretch his calf. Definitely can play with it.
Larry accidentally made this a FanPost, which doesn't allow the use of our images... so I copied and pasted it into this one, and added the injured Q! picture
UPDATE: Steve Stone relays info straight from the GM, who calls Quentin day-to-day and said the injury is not nearly as bad as it looked.

bullshit.
the primary reason they’re not putting him on the DL to get this sorted out is because there ain’t nothing in the cupboard. the sox are blowing their reputation on health with this one. when a guy has been “day to day” for a couple weeks now, needs to be removed in the sixth inning for “defensive purposes”, and barely makes it to second on a double…nope, you’re right. stretch that calf out some more.

I missed the thread where everyone shared their personal fasciitis experiences
So I’ll do mine here. It hurt like hell. The boot and stretching helped me from aggravating it further but it didn’t get better till I stopped running. Maybe I should share that info with Kenny.
For heaven’s sake, DL Q and get him healthy. There’s no point in him being out there in that kind of pain.
If only the Sox had someone who could play LF…it can’t be hard to get someone like that — Betemit and two minor league pitcher should be enough.

WTGTD = Herm.
PF is actually microscopic tears in the facia of your foot. It isn’t repaired by stretching, ice, heat, or cortisone shots, though that might help it feel better. It’s (wait for it) REST. And until he rests, he’s toast And if it’s in his head, he’s even more toast.
GOD. This sucks.
We’re a pack of a-holes.

The greatest trick the White Sox ever pulled was convincing their fan base that "Ozzieball" ever existed.
