Free Agency movements had cooled off, with the end of the Rule 5 deadline approaching for all Major League Baseball-MLB. Where several teams drew players from their roster of 40, to make room for prospects and protect them.
As of today, according to Robert Murray, he announced that the left-handed free agent pitcher José Quintana reached an agreement with the Pittsburgh Pirates, pending a physical examination, according to sources it would be one year for undisclosed value.
But Jon Heyman reported that his contract will be $ 2 million for his services with the filibusters.
Jose Quintana is coming off a low-performance 2021, where in 29 starts and 10 starts, he set a 0-3 mark, a 6.43 ERA in 63.0 innings of work, prescribing 85 strikeouts and 1.73 WHIP, with two teams, one in each League. In the National with the San Francisco Giants and in the American League with the Angels.
Born in Colombia at the age of 32, José has been declining his performance, although they were not among the top of MLB, he always fulfilled his job throughout his stay in the city of Chicago, first with the White Sox (2012-2017), then with the Cubs (2017-2020).
The Pirates are betting on an experienced pitcher who is ending his major league career, trying to get out of those lousy performances, in his final seasons. We’ll see if José can help Pittsburgh to regain their winning rhythm, and if he can personally regain his best moments from the box.
We will have to wait for the 2022 season, but from now on, José Quintana is assured of being able to step on a baseball field in the Major Leagues. Good luck to ‟Lelo” as his closest friends affectionately call him.

José Quintana will have a NEW TEAM for the 2022 season
