The White Sox got terrible news last week when they found out that slugger Carlos Quentin was to miss the rest of the regular season.  Only up 2.5 games on the Twins, could this do the Sox in?  Part of me thinks yes, but then you remember who else they have on their team, notably three guys that have been tearing it up all season:  Alexei Ramirez, Jim Thome, and Jermaine Dye.  Dye would be receiving MVP attention if it wasn’t for Quentin, Thome has yet another 30 HR year, and Ramirez has been having a tremendous rookie season.  As long as their pitching holds up and those three keep raking, the Sox SHOULD be able to hold off the Twins, but it’ll be close.
