Jose Quintana Fantasy Stats

The Milwaukee Brewers declined their $15 million mutual option on left-hander Jose Quintana on Tuesday, making him a free agent, per ESPN's Jeff Passan. Quintana will be given a $2 million buyout and will be free to sign with any MLB team this offseason. The 36-year-old veteran southpaw only struck out 89 hitters in 131 2/3 innings in 2025 with the Brew Crew, but he managed to go 11-7 with a decent 3.96 ERA, 1.29 WHIP, and 50 walks over 24 starts during the regular season. Quintana's 4.81 FIP indicates he was very fortunate to have an ERA under 4.00, though, and his market most likely won't be very robust this winter. At best, he's a back-end starter for a big-league rotation at this stage of his career, and his lack of strikeout upside makes him pretty unattractive for fantasy purposes outside of deep leagues.

Milwaukee Brewers veteran left-hander Jose Quintana will start Game 4 of the National League Championship Series on Friday at Dodger Stadium against the Los Angeles Dodgers, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. Quintana was pushed back to Friday's game after Milwaukee used left-hander Aaron Ashby as the opener and rookie right-hander Jacob Misiorowski as their bulk reliever in the Game 3 loss on Thursday. The 36-year-old soft-tosser will now be tasked with keeping the Brewers' playoff hopes alive and to avoid a four-game sweep in the best-of-seven series. This will be Quintana's second playoff appearance this year after he held the Chicago Cubs scoreless over three innings in the NL Division Series. Quintana faced the Dodgers in back-to-back outings on July 9 and 20 during the regular season and allowed a combined five earned runs on six hits (two homers) while walking four and striking out nine in 12 innings. The Brewers won both of those games.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jose Quintana and Quinn Priester are both being considered as candidates to start Game 2 of the NLDS, according to manager Pat Murphy. The Brewers have already named Freddy Peralta as Saturday's Game 1 starter against the Chicago Cubs. Quintana has been sidelined with a calf strain, but appears to be healthy now. He posted a 3.97 ERA, 1.29 WHIP, and an 89/50 K/BB ratio across 24 starts this season. Priester came out of seemingly nowhere and registered a 3.32 ERA, 1.24 WHIP, and a 132/50 K/BB ratio in 24 starts. Both pitchers have been viable options for the Brewers and figure to both be used during this series.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jose Quintana (calf) was placed on the 15-day injured list on Wednesday. Quintana was able to play catch on Tuesday without any issues. However, Quintana doesn't appear to be feeling good enough to take the mound right now. The left-hander will miss basically the rest of the regular season, but is eligible to return on September 30. Quintana was forced to exit his latest outing due a mild calf strain. The Brewers are hopeful that Quintana will be back in time for the postseason. Fantasy managers can safely drop Quintana in redraft formats. In a corresponding move, right-hander Nick Mears has been activated off the injured list.

The Milwaukee Brewers are saying that left-hander Jose Quintana (calf) is dealing with a mild left-calf strain, according to Jack Stern of Brewer Fanatic. Quintana will be re-evaluated when he plays catch on Tuesday to determine his availability for his next outing. Manager Pat Murphy said Quintana suffered the injury while covering first base in his last start on Sunday against the St. Louis Cardinals, and he will undergo an MRI exam. Even if the 36-year-old veteran's MRI results come back encouraging, he could land on the injured list as a precaution so the Brewers can get him fully healthy for the start of the postseason in October. Quintana's next scheduled start comes this Saturday against St. Louis. The soft-tossing left-hander has only 89 K's in 131 2/3 innings, but he also has an ERA under 4.00 with a 1.29 WHIP in 24 starts for the Brew Crew.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jose Quintana (calf) left Sunday's start after suffering a calf injury, reports Todd Rosiak of The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The injury occurred while he was running to cover first base, and he was removed after four innings and 67 pitches. He underwent an MRI after the game, but the results and the severity of the injury have not yet been disclosed. Expect an update tomorrow on the extent of the injury, but this would be a blow to a Brewers team that is already thin at pitching heading into a playoff run. They have Erick Fedde and Chad Patrick in the bullpen, who could both potentially step back into the rotation if needed.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jose Quintana fired six shutout innings in Saturday's 9-0 win over the Minnesota Twins. The Colombian native allowed three hits and struck out one while issuing four free passes to improve to 5-2 through ten starts. Quintana landed just 52 of 90 pitches for strikes, but was the beneficiary of plenty of soft contact in his longest start since Apr. 22. It was his first win in nearly two months. The veteran sports a strong 2.98 ERA over his first 54 1/3 innings. However, his 1.40 WHIP is more indicative of his performance and underlying metrics (4.63 xFIP). He'll get a favorable matchup in the visiting Colorado Rockies his next time out.

The Milwaukee Brewers have activated left-handed pitcher Jose Quintana (shoulder) off the 15-day injured list prior to his start on Sunday against the Philadelphia Phillies. Quintana has been sidelined since May 14 due to a left shoulder impingement. Before his injury, Quintana was enjoying a solid start to the campaign, posting a 2.65 ERA with a 1.14 WHIP across 34 innings of work. The left-hander struck out just 24 batters but allowed just 11 free passes. Under the hood, he generated a high 4.32 xERA and a .271 xBA, which place him in the 33rd and 24th percentiles among qualified pitchers. With Quintana returning to the rotation, fantasy managers should expect either Chad Patrick or Quinn Priester to transition to a full-time reliever. Quintana is best to fade in DFS facing a potent Philadelphia lineup.

Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Jose Quintana (shoulder) is back from his one-game minor-league rehab assignment and said he has normal soreness but otherwise feels fine, according to MLB.com's Adam McCalvy. Quintana is preparing to come off the injured list to start on Sunday on the road against the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park. The 36-year-old southpaw is ready to return to the big-league starting rotation after tossing 71 pitches over four innings in his rehab start with High-A Wisconsin on Tuesday. Quintana has had a good start to his 2025 season in Milwaukee, going 4-1 with a 2.65 ERA (4.54 FIP) and 1.23 WHIP with 24 strikeouts and 11 walks in 34 innings over six starts, but his 4.54 FIP points to regression coming. We wouldn't recommend using him as a fantasy streamer this weekend against a Phillies offense that ranks fifth in MLB with a .744 OPS.

Milwaukee Brewers left-hander Jose Quintana (shoulder) had a second opinion recently that confirmed the original diagnosis of a left-shoulder impingement that landed him on the 15-day injured list (retroactive to May 11) on May 14. Quintana is scheduled for bullpen sessions on Tuesday and Friday of this week, according to MLB.com. If those sessions go well, the 36-year-old southpaw could come off the IL as soon as he's eligible next Monday without going on a minor-league rehab assignment. He has posted a strong 4-1 record and 2.65 ERA in his first six starts over 34 innings in 2025 with the Brew Crew, but his 4.57 FIP and weak 6.4 K/9 mark make him vulnerable to regression the rest of the way when he returns from his shoulder injury. Given all the other injuries to Milwaukee's starters, Quintana should have a rotation spot waiting for him next week.
