Fantasy Impact:

Quintana reportedly hurt his thumb while washing dishes at his home in Miami. The laceration on his thumb required five stitches and he will be sidelined for at least two weeks. He underwent surgery on Thursday after nerve damage in his thumb was found. Quintana will most likely not be ready for Opening Day and it is unclear at this time when he will return. Look for Alec Mills to enter the rotation in his place.
