"Carlos Quentin was wrapped like a mummy with ice packed around his body after making a diving catch and hitting two home runs Monday night.

But it was a sore left knee that caused him to be scratched from Tuesday night's lineup against the Angels.

Manager Ozzie Guillen didn't want to risk further aggravation for Quentin, who has hit seven home runs since June 22. Guillen said Quentin would return as a designated hitter when he is ready to start.

Alex Rios, who was 0-for-12, was reinserted in the lineup.

In other medical news, infielder Omar Vizquel (left knee bruise) resumed baseball drills and could return soon. Disabled third baseman Mark Teahen will have his broken middle right finger X-rayed Friday.

Ready Freddy: Freddy Garcia will make his final start of an impressive first half Wednesday night, and he credits an eight-day break after getting pounded for seven runs in three innings on April 15 for his success."
