Jose Quintana is a starting pitcher for the Colorado Rockies. In 2026 he struck out 22 batters over 45.0 innings across 10 appearances, 10 of them starts, going 2-3. His ERA of 5.40 is 29.2% higher than the league average of 4.18 — 11th of 21 on his team, and 442nd of 538 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 5.70 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 20.9% of swings (9.9% of every pitch he threw), walked 9.0% of the batters he faced and struck out 11.1%. His -0.2 dbWAR is built from that FIP rather than runs allowed, so it credits him for what he controls and not for the defence behind him.
