2023 Fantasy Outlook
That came out of nowhere -- Quintana enjoyed a career year in 2022 with a 2.93 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 137:47 K:BB across 165.2 innings between the Cardinals and the Pirates. Pitching in the NL Central surely has its upside, but the left-hander has never been that sharp. He was helped by a 0.4 HR/9 and a 2.6 BB/9, though his 7.4 K/9 rate was his lowest since 2013. He got a two-year, $26 million deal from the Mets to be a back-end starter, which is about as good of a landing spot as we could have hoped for. Even so, fantasy managers should know it's risky to make a big investment on a player that defied his aging curve so significantly a year ago. Quintana could still end up being solid, but be prepared to bake in a large helping of regression on draft day. League-average is likely a best-case scenario. Read Past Outlooks

Signs on with Mets
Quintana agreed Wednesday with the Mets on a two-year, $26 million contract, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Quintana enjoyed a resurgent season in 2022, going 6-7 while producing a 2.93 ERA and 1.21 WHIP with 137 strikeouts over 165.2 innings in 32 starts between the Pirates and Cardinals. He'll now provide the Mets with a left-handed option to complement frontline starters Max Scherzer and Justin Verlander, the latter of whom replaces Jacob deGrom as New York's new staff ace. The two-year deal will keep Quintana in New York through his age-35 campaign.

The left-hander struggled with a 6.43 ERA and 1.73 WHIP in 29 games (10 starts) between the Angels and Giants last season. His 28.6 K% was in the 81st percentile, so he could be a solid source of strikeouts as a streamer against the Cubs and Reds, but his barrel rate was in the 4th percentile, so he will always be a risk to the ratios, even against bad offenses. The best thing working in Quintana's favor is his job security and division. Quintana has thrown only 73 innings over the last two years, so he shouldn't be expected to hold up under a full season's worth of starts.
