What a horrible performance by Q. Can he face KC again?

Isnt it a bit short sighted for one not great game to assume it changes anything from 3 hours ago...

We were saying his value wasn't as high as we thought for a while on here. Teams just don't think he's an ace

Not a great start for Q but on the bright side following on Game Day it seems like only a couple of these balls have been hit hard. I'm also not that concerned about ERA, peripherals are much more important IMO.

3 doubles and a home run were hit softly?

I've always just had to accept Jose Quintana's good numbers as his quality and value...

 

But watching him pitch is like going to have a cavity replace.

 

It's just god awful.

This is about as bad as he's pitched over course of last two innings

And quintana explodes

10 of last 12 batters reach?

ERA over 4.5 again

Why force a trade when you don't have to?

 

We have control over the Q contract for three years. There is no need to trade him . We aren't in a panic situation. The wheels fell off this game but all pitchers have bad games

I'll take the L on this one but I still think people worry about ERA too much, I don't think GMs pay that much attention to it these days. In general for trade value I think a 7IP, 4ER, 9K, 0BB outing is better than a 7IP, 0ER, 2K, 3BB type of performance.

At least Abreu is staying hot.

Clearly the worst thing you can do is give Jose Quintana run support.

I wonder if Q wasn't tipping something? Second time through the order was a massive difference.

Good lord Jose

Q is murdering his trade value..

Ummm, no.

 

That's pitching without your best stuff and still gutting out a win.

Most road HR this season

10 José Abreu #WhiteSox

9 Freddie Freeman #Braves

8 Murphy WSH, Myers SD, Perez KC, Sanó MIN, Zimmerman WSH

 

I didn't know it was a day game WTF happened to Q? 8 runs on 8 hits with 7K? Some bad luck or what?

QUOTE (Tony @ May 24, 2017 -> 06:00 PM)
Not really. Hit hard.

 

Damn. I don't think it moves the needle much, but it's another data point. At this point might make sense to hang onto him unless you get bowled over with an offer.

QUOTE (Tony @ May 24, 2017 -> 06:02 PM)
Jose is just KILLING the ball.

 

Ron weeps....

 

He goes through the same thing every year it seems. The cycle goes something like ---> looks like s*** --> starts shooting some RBI singles into RF on occasion but still mostly looks like s*** ---> starts hitting HR and line drives everywhere ---> starts taking walks in addition to hitting line drives and HRs ---> looks like s***.
