Quentin appeared in a minor league game at first base Tuesday, the Union-Tribune reports.
Analysis:
Quentin has seen time at first base for the first time in his career this spring as a way of upping his chances at making the Opening Day roster, which is already loaded in the outfield. The influx of outfield talent leaves Quentin on the fringe of making the 25-man roster. According to the Union-Tribune's report, San Diego's efforts to find an American League trade partner for Quentin have been unsuccessful to this point. The Padres have until Sunday to either move Quentin, release him, or keep him.
