Jose Quintana shines in shutout against Reds
by Chris Schommer | Mets Correspondent | Sun, Sep 8th 9:31am EDT
Jose Quintana delivered a masterclass on the mound Saturday, tossing 6 2/3 scoreless innings while allowing just five hits and two walks, and striking out six in a 4-0 victory over the Reds.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance was a bright spot in what has been a roller-coaster season for Quintana, who entered the game with a middling 4.09 ERA and a 1.31 WHIP. His ability to keep the ball away from hitters, evidenced by a .270 BABIP, and a solid outing like today's, could hint at potential late-season stability. However, his modest strikeout rate (7.0 K/9) and high FIP (4.97) suggest that fantasy managers should temper expectations. While today's outing might boost confidence in his capabilities, consistency will be key for Quintana's fantasy relevance as the season winds down.
