July 13, 20178 yr My favorite active player. I will always remember fondly trying to come up with witty medieval style words to put alongside pictures of Quetzalcoatl when my turn to create the game thread came along. Best of luck, mighty serpent. You are better than the Cubs deserve, but you make the organization easier to root for.
July 13, 20178 yr It is really hard to describe Q. He doesn't have amazing stuff but he just has something that makes him a great pitcher. We got him for practically nothing and sold high on him IMO. Going to miss watching him pitch but maybe in two years we will bring him back to help bring a championship to the South Side.
July 13, 20178 yr QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 11:12 AM) Favorite Sox pitcher since Buehrle easily. Will miss you greatly Quintana. Same. Great guy on and off the field.
July 13, 20178 yr I really hope he does well for the Cubs. It would suck for him if he struggles and gets an insane amount of scrutiny since they dealt such good prospects.
July 13, 20178 yr This is harder for me than Sale because Quintana, IMO, is a much more likable person. He just went about his business, every 5 days, stayed quiet, did his job well. Imagine all the bad luck- constant bad defense behind him, no run support, etc. that he dealt with. The fact that he never once complained about any of that and always remained positive and professional is remarkable.
July 13, 20178 yr After he dominates the Sox in about 2 weeks i'll be over this shock,until then gonna suck real bad.
July 13, 20178 yr Going to miss you, Flying Serpent. I'll still root for you, even if you are wearing blue. Do your thing Q, thank you for staying quiet and handling business. You were an honor to have wearing black & white.
July 13, 20178 yr QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Jul 13, 2017 -> 12:35 PM) After he dominates the Sox in about 2 weeks i'll be over this shock,until then gonna suck real bad. He will throw 7 innings of three hit ball with no runs. He will leave up 2-0, and Sox will score 3 in the 8th and 9th to leave him a ND.
July 13, 20178 yr Deserves a few shots at a ring, I will cheer for him even though he will be wearing blue. Dont care.
July 13, 20178 yr Can not stop rooting for this guy. He will be the best starting pitcher in the second half for them and lead their staff to a division title.
July 13, 20178 yr Deserves to pitch in playoffs. I'm sad, but reality was for me as soon as it was clear he needed to be traded it was hard to enjoy his performances. Was too aware of how important every start was to sit back and watch.
July 13, 20178 yr Quintana was the perfect replacement for Mark Buehrle. Now we need another "soft" tossing lefty to rise from the ashes and make us forget about Q. Best wishes buddy, go win a World Series.

July 13, 20178 yr Thanks for being the best pitcher in baseball no one paid any attention to. Good luck on the North Side. I hope Avi launches one against you.

Yeahhhh Kopech is going to come up fireballing and blowing people away. I think we'll be fine with that.
