Cal Quantrill struggled mightily in Saturday's 12-4 loss to the Astros.
Fantasy Impact
He allowed six earned runs on six hits and two walks while striking out only two over five innings. This performance further inflates his already concerning ERA to 5.34 and WHIP to 1.50 for the season. Quantrill's inability to suppress runs or miss bats, evidenced by a low 4.8 K/9 and a high 6.04 FIP, casts doubt on his viability as a fantasy option in all but the deepest of leagues. His consistent struggles, highlighted by zero wins in six starts, make him a risky play moving forward.
Cal Quantrill pitched a decent game against the Phillies, allowing just one earned run on four hits and two walks while striking out one over six innings in Monday's 2-1 loss to the Phillies.
Fantasy Impact
Despite a solid performance that kept his team in the game, Quantrill's season stats remain less than stellar, with a 5.57 ERA and a 1.52 WHIP through four starts.
Cal Quantrill surrendered three runs on eight hits and no walks while striking out six over six frames in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Diamondbacks.
Fantasy Impact
Fantasy managers should remain wary of Quantrill's inconsistency and high ERA. Despite a glimpse of potential against the Diamondbacks, his fantasy value remains limited.
Over just 4 innings, Quantrill surrendered 4 earned runs on 4 hits and 4 walks, managing to strike out only 3 batters
Fantasy Impact
This performance contributed to a ballooning season ERA of 9.00 and a WHIP that has crept up to an unsettling 2.00. His strikeout rate remains low at 4.0 K/9, and a concerning 0.80 strikeout-to-walk ratio further dampens his appeal. The high .344 BABIP might suggest some bad luck, but the underlying 6.92 fielding independent pitching (FIP) indicates that Quantrill's struggles are largely of his own making. Quantrill will look to bounce back after a rough start through two games.
Cal Quantrill has added a splitter to his pitch arsenal this offseason.
Fantasy Impact
Quantrill will now be pitching in the most hitter friendly ball park in the MLB in Colorado. The splitter could potentially help him, but it'll be difficult for him to be fantasy relevant.
