"It is better to keep your mouth shut and be thought of as a fool than to open it and remove all doubt"
Mark Twain

Obviously, Texas Rangers closer C.J. Wilson hasn't read Mark Twain.  If he had, Wilson would have never lashed out at White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen ten days ago, complaining how Guillen's bench jockeying had inspired him in closing out a Ranger win against the Sox.

The doubt that Wilson is a fool was removed by the bat of Carlos Quentin, whose three run home run off the mouthy reliever capped a five run inning and game, set and match for the White Sox yesterday afternoon at U.S. Cellphone Field.

In fact, Wilson's nemesis wasn't around when Quentin took him yard, having been ejected an inning earlier for arguing with home plate umpire Stevie Wonder Rob Drake.

Quentin, classy as he is, said after the game that the incident was long forgotten, but let's face it, revenge is sweet and it was Quentin's bat that settled the score with the chatty Wilson. 

Put it on the board, C.J.

Lightning Round

• I don't fault Ozzie for getting run yesterday.  Rob Drake was Phil Cuzzi bad yesterday.  You'll notice when Ozzie gets run for the right reasons, there are no "crazy Ozzie" stories.  Even from Mariotti.
• Are you willing to sell your future for a shot at the championship this year?  If so, then trade Josh Fields.  At this point, Kenny Williams is such an evil genius you can't really fault him if he does.  But, having Fields and Q in the same lineup along with Swish, Anderson, Dye and Ramirez does make your mouth water.
  
• Rumors are that the Sox are talking to the Red Sox about Juan Uribe.  I wonder if the ROI on that one is worth it or it is, as the reports indicate a salary dump.  Even so, I'd just assume see the Sox dump Uribe to the National League where he won't be a factor should the White Sox meet the Red Sox in the playoffs.

• Here's a terrifically detailed critique of Clayton Richard's first start.  I'd like to see him pitch again.  I thought he was way too jacked up, especially in the first inning where he kept falling behind hitters.  One thing is for sure, he's no Arnie Munoz, the standard to which all rookie starters are held.
