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
Looks good in ramp-up
Quantrill allowed four hits and one walk while striking out three across 4.2 scoreless innings in Sunday's Cactus League game against the Giants.
ANALYSIS
Quantrill made his longest appearance of the spring and tallied his first strikeout of the exhibition season. Despite the lack of swing and miss, he's been effective, allowing only three earned runs across 10.2 frames. Quantrill will be relied upon as a key part of the Rockies' rotation, though he's likely to find consistent success hard to come by given his contact-heavy approach at Coors Field.

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.
