2024 Fantasy Outlook
Quantrill's run of success came to a screeching halt last season, as he made a pair of trips to the injured list with shoulder trouble and struggled to an ERA north of 6.00 in his final 12 starts. While it was obvious that the right-hander had been pitching over his skis since coming over from San Diego, it was still somewhat surprising to see his performance crater like it did. The injury almost certainly played a part, but regardless the Guardians designated Quantrill for assignment after the season, later sending him to the Rockies via trade. Quantrill has always been subject to the whims of variance given his low strikeout rate (career 17.7 K%), and adding Coors Field to the mix makes him a highly combustible element. Colorado is hoping he can provide stability in the middle of the rotation, but it will be tough in that division. Read Past Outlooks
Notches second straight victory
Quantrill (2-3) earned the win over San Francisco on Thursday, allowing one run on five hits and three walks while striking out five batters over six innings.
ANALYSIS
The only run and only extra-base hit Quantrill allowed came on a fourth-inning Michael Conforto solo homer. The right-handed hurler was otherwise in control throughout, as no other baserunner reached third base against him. Quantrill picked up his second straight win, and he has five quality starts over his past six appearances. That gives him some fantasy viability, but given his home park, mediocre strikeout numbers and season 3.94 ERA, he's probably still best reserved for deeper leagues.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Still on Boston's radar
The Red Sox remain interested in trading for Quantrill, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Quantrill's name was frequently mentioned when the Padres were angling for Mookie Betts, and Boston remains interested in acquiring the young pitcher as part of a potential Wil Myers salary dump from San Diego. According to Acee, the Red Sox would likely need at least one of prospects Luis Campusano and Gabriel Arias in addition to Quantrill in order to eat half of the $61 million remaining on Myers' contract over the next three years.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2021
2020
2018
2017
Quantrill was a full-time starter in 2022 and took a small step back, logging a 3.38 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 128:47 K:BB while going 15-5 over 32 starts spanning 186.1 innings. Aside from the durability, there's nothing particularly remarkable about the right-hander -- he was a steady innings-eater that wouldn't hurt the ratios. Every fantasy team needs a guy like that, but managers need to make up for Quantrill's lack of strikeouts with their early-round picks. He can safely be penciled in as the Guardians' No. 3 starter behind Shane Bieber and Triston McKenzie heading into 2023. Quantrill leans heavily on a 93.6 mph sinker and an 88.5 mph cutter after taking the slider out of his repertoire last season.
