Quantrill didn't factor into the decision Monday, allowing one run on four hits and two walks with one strikeout during 6.0 innings against the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

Quantrill notched his second straight quality start and yielded fewer than three runs for the first time in 2023. Despite making three of his first four starts away from Coors Field, Quantrill owns a 5.57 ERA and an 11:7 K:BB through 21.0 innings. After their series in Philadelphia, the Rockies will play their next nine games at home, with Quantrill tentatively lined up to face the Mariners on Sunday before seeing either the Padres or Astros in his following start.

Quantrill (0-2) took the loss Tuesday against the Diamondbacks, allowing three runs on eight hits and no walks in six innings. He struck out six.

EDGE Analysis

Quantrill struck out a season-high six batters in his first quality start of the year, but he fell victim to the long ball, allowing home runs to Corbin Carroll and Randal Grichuk. Both of those home runs came in the first two innings, as Quantrill was able to settle in and throw four shutout frames afterwards. It's been a rough go early for the 29-year-old and he'll take a 7.20 ERA and 1.73 WHIP into his next start on the road against Philadelphia.

Quantrill allowed four runs on four hits and four walks while striking out three batters over four innings in a no-decision against the Cubs on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Quantrill had control issues in the outing, though most of his struggles came in the second inning, when he walked three batters and gave up all four of the runs against him. He at least managed to retire five of the final six batters he faced, but he was pulled after the fourth frame having thrown 90 pitches. Quantrill's tenure in Colorado has not gotten off to a good beginning, as he's given up nine earned runs across his first nine innings and has posted a 4:5 K:BB along with a 2.00 WHIP.

Quantrill (0-1) yielded five runs on nine hits and a walk over five-plus innings Friday, striking out one and taking a loss against Arizona.

EDGE Analysis

Quantrill served up back-to-back home runs to Lourdes Gurriel and Christian Walker in the first inning. Through five frames, Quantrill had allowed just three runs but was charged with two more in the sixth after putting two runners on base. The 29-year-old right posted a disappointing 5.24 ERA across 99.2 innings in 2023 and the outlook doesn't seem much better for him as a Rockie in 2024. Quantrill is currently lined up for a road matchup with the Cubs next week.

Quantrill will start the second game of the regular season against the Diamondbacks, Patrick Saunders of the Denver Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Quantrill was hit hard in his final outing of spring training, but he's still set to follow Kyle Freeland in the rotation as the Rockies' second starter. Positively, he's worked 4.2 innings in each of his last two starts, so he should be able to handle a full workload to begin the campaign.

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.

EDGE 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 completed two innings while allowing two hits and one run with no strikeouts or walks in his Cactus League debut with the Rockies on Saturday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Quantrill will serve a key role in the Rockies' rotation during the regular season after being acquired by the team this offseason. He had a strong debut with the club, focusing on pumping his splitter and sinker into the strike zone. His ability to use those pitches consistently will be a key to his success, as he'll want to keep the ball on the ground while pitching in one of the more hitter-friendly home parks in the league.

The Rockies and Quantrill avoided arbitration Wednesday by agreeing to a one-year, $6.55 million contract, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Colorado acquired Quantrill from Cleveland back in November and it has now locked him into a contract for the 2024 campaign. The right-hander posted a disappointing 5.24 ERA and 58:35 K:BB over 99.2 innings in 2023 but held a career 3.54 mark heading into the season. Quantrill will open 2024 in the Rockies' rotation but won't be a desirable fantasy option.

The Rockies acquired Quantrill from the Guardians in exchange for Kody Huff on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Quantrill had been designated for assignment by Cleveland earlier in the week but quickly landed in another organization, and he should slide right into Colorado's rotation. The 28-year-old right-hander posted a 5.24 ERA and 58:35 K:BB over 99.2 innings in 2023 but boasted a career 3.54 ERA coming into last season. Quantrill is a sensible addition by the Rockies, but landing in Colorado virtually eliminates whatever fantasy appeal he might have had in 2024.

Quantrill was designated for assignment by the Guardians on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Qunatrill was a reliable member of Cleveland's starting rotation between 2021-22 before stumbling to a 5.24 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 58:35 K:BB over 99.2 innings in 2023. The 28-year-old right-hander can elect free agency if he passes through waivers unclaimed and would actually probably do quite well for himself in this pitching-thin market.
