Extension Proposal: Jose Quintana

[Scooterfletcher]

Would you offer him 2/19 and see if he would accept that?  It would open up the deadline pieces a bit for us and I’d guess both sides might do that.

No the Brewers should probably not extend the 36 year old pitcher with severely regressing underlying numbers to a 2 year deal.

[Scooterfletcher]

Well, he will get that in the off season plus some.   But maybe WIguy94 is right to not execute this idea.   Who knows?

Why will he get that in the offseason? He's a year older than he was last offseason when he had a similar season to this year and only got 1 year for $4.25M

I think the Brewers have a replacement for Quintana already on the 40-man roster. Pass. 

[wallus]

Quintana has been a good value signing but we don't need to extend him past this year.

[KCBrewerfan34]

Quintana won’t get close to 2/19, maybe 1 for $5-6. Brew don’t need him next year.

Can I ask where you got those numbers from?

[Lathund]

Absolutely not. He signed for a lot less this year, and if Brewers are looking to add a veteran next year they should either sign him to a similar deal to this year (~$4m), or find the next year version of Quintana. 

They're stacked with young starters, spend the money where the team is thin instead. If anything, Quintana should be a trade candidate. 

[TURBO]

He is probably the last thing we will need next year given the young talent at starting pitcher that this team currently has.

I agree with the poster above, trade him in the next couple of weeks, don't look at resigning him in the off season.
