Jose Quintana

Jose Quintana went 5.2 innings and allowed three runs on seven hits, walked one, and struck out four as the Rockies held off the Rangers, 7-6, on Monday.

Fantasy Impact

Quintana evened his record at 2-2 on the season and has now allowed three earned runs or fewer in seven of his eight starts this season. He threw a season-high 94 pitches on Monday - 62 for strikes - and his four strikeouts were one off of his season-best. While he's not the same pitcher he was earlier in his career, Quintana has provided solid innings in his first season in Colorado and is 2-2 with a 4.08 ERA and a 1.41 WHIP across 39.2 innings. He's scheduled to face the Diamondbacks, in Arizona, on Saturday.

Jose Quintana allowed two runs on five hits, walked two, and struck out two in 5.2 innings of work on Thursday as the Rockies defeated the Mets, 6-2.

Fantasy Impact

The lefthander allowed both runs in the second inning as the Mets jumped out to a 2-0 lead. Then, Quintana surrendered a one-out triple to Juan Soto in the third but, after a walk to Bo Bichette, induced an inning-ending double play from Mark Vientos to escape trouble. He was pulled after allowing a two-out infield single in the sixth - and after only 74 pitches - with Colorado trailing, 2-1. Quintana has now allowed two runs or fewer in three straight starts and has a 2.12 ERA in 17 innings during the stretch. Overall, he has a respectable 3.90 ERA in six starts, though his fantasy value is limited by just a 14:13 K:BB ratio in 30 innings. He's scheduled to start again on Wednesday in Pittsburgh.

Jose Quintana allowed one run on five hits in six strong innings on Friday, but the Braves came from behind to defeat the Rockies, 8-6.

Fantasy Impact

Quintana kept the Braves' offense off the scoreboard until Matt Olson hit a solo home run with one out in the fourth inning. That would be the only run he would allow in six solid innings as he did not walk a batter and struck out three while throwing 85 pitches. Quintana left with a 6-1 lead after six, but the Braves scored seven times in the final three innings to stun the Rockies. The veteran lefthander has pitched to a 1.59 ERA with an 8:2 K:BB ratio over his last two starts, spanning 11.1 innings. He'll take a 1-2 record, a 4.05 ERA, and a 1.36 WHIP into his next start against the Mets on Wednesday.

Jose Quintana went 5.1 innings in game one of a doubleheader with the Mets on Sunday. The lefthander allowed one run on two hits, walked two, and struck out five in the Rockies' 3-1 victory in game one.

Fantasy Impact

Quintana easily had his best start of the season on Sunday, allowing a season-low one run while going a season-long 5.1 innings. He also struck out five on the day after entering with just four strikeouts through his first three starts. The only blemish on his line was a solo home run by Tyrone Taylor in the fifth. Quintana is 1-2 with a 4.91 ERA but still has a 9:11 K:BB ratio through 18.1 innings. He's scheduled to pitch again in a tough home matchup against the Braves on Friday.

Jose Quintana was able to get through five innings on Monday, but he allowed six runs (four earned) on eight hits in a 12-3 loss to the Dodgers. The lefthander walked one and struck out one.

Fantasy Impact

Quintana served up two home runs in his outing as Max Muncy and Miguel Rojas went back-to-back in the top of the second inning. The veteran lefthander has struggled mightily in three starts this season and is 0-2 with a 6.23 ERA in 13 innings. He's allowed 15 hits and has a 4:9 K:BB ratio. It's probably best to leave him on waivers, even in deeper leagues.
