That does sound familiar now. They had Betances and Banuelos (sp?) and whoever else and just saw Q lower on the totem pole. Thanks Cashman!

 

Noesi was also one of their higher ranked prospects.

Instead of making this thread again, I'm bumping it so we can stop clogging other threads.

 

Jose Quintana was the ninth best pitcher in baseball.

 

Stop saying we should trade him.

Repeated and bolded because STOP IT PEOPLE.

Awesome stuff about Q here. Most interesting part: It lists guys who pitched like him from ages 23-26, followed by what they did for the next five years. The takeaway is that if he stays healthy, he should continue to be really good.

 

If you're in favor of trading him to because of the team needs on offense, that's understandable. But if part of the calculus is that we'd be "selling high," this article disputes your math.

We'd be "selling high" because "we need position players", not because want to maximize value or anything like that..

Nothing flashy about Q . He just does his job very very well and with about as much emotion as a ping pong ball. It'll be a sad day when he is traded. There was a huge amount of doubters about him on this board.

 

The worst part would be if he was traded to a contender and got his much deserved All-Star appearances, everyone who wanted to trade him would say "Why couldn't he pitching that for us?"
