Quintana (1-5) allowed five runs on nine hits and three walks while striking out five over 5.1 innings to take the loss Wednesday versus Atlanta.

EDGE Analysis

Quintana failed to complete six innings for the first time since his season debut July 20 versus the White Sox. Atlanta was also the first team he's faced multiple times this year, but he couldn't replicate the success of allowing one run over six innings on Aug. 12. Quintana is now at a 3.73 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 30:17 K:BB through 41 innings across seven starts this season. He's tentatively projected for a home start versus the Rangers next week.

Quintana (1-4) earned the win Thursday, allowing two runs on three hits and four walks over six innings against the Cardinals. He struck out five.

EDGE Analysis

Quintana was highly effective Thursday, going 1-2-3 through each of the first three innings and hurling six scoreless frames before finally surrendering a solo home run to Tyler O'Neill to open the seventh. It was the first home run allowed by the left-hander in six starts this season while he's also allowed two earned runs or fewer in five of those six outings. On the down side, he's also issued at least two walks in all but one start.

Quintana (0-4) took the loss in the second game of Saturday's doubleheader against Atlanta, allowing one run on four hits and three walks over six innings. He struck out four.

EDGE Analysis

The southpaw continues to pitch very well -- he's delivered four straight quality starts after being limited to only five innings in his season debut July 20 -- and continues to have little to show for it due to a lack of run support, as the Mets have been shut out in his last two outings. Quintana will take a 3.03 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 20:10 K:BB through 29.2 innings into his next start, likely to come next week in St. Louis.

Quintana (0-3) took the loss Sunday, allowing two runs on six hits and two walks over six innings in a 2-0 loss to the Orioles. He struck out six.

EDGE Analysis

It was another tough-luck loss for Quintana, who put together his third consecutive quality start. In four starts since making his season debut following rib surgery, the 34-year-old Quintana has shown that he's still an effective pitcher with a 3.42 ERA and 1.31 WHIP. However, as long as the Mets continue to flounder, wins are going to be tough to attain for the 13-year vet.

Quintana did not factor into the decision Tuesday, allowing three runs on six hits and two walks over 6.2 innings against the Royals. He struck out two.

EDGE Analysis

Quintana corralled a second consecutive quality start and pushed past the sixth inning for the first time in 2023. Though Quintana has yet to pick up a tally in the win column, he owns a 3.57 ERA and a 10:3 K:BB through three starts and is lined up to visit the Orioles for his next start.

Quintana (0-2) took the loss against the Yankees on Wednesday, allowing three runs (two earned) on six hits and three walks while striking out five batters over six innings.

EDGE Analysis

Quintana made his second start of the campaign and went one more inning than in his season debut against the White Sox on July 20, when he allowed two runs over five frames. The left-hander picked up a quality start against the Yankees but got inadequate run support to drop to 0-2. Quintana worked up to 94 pitches Wednesday, so he appears to already be capable of managing a nearly full workload. Despite taking a loss in each of his first two outings, he's been fine with a 3.27 ERA and 1.36 WHIP.

Quintana (0-1) took the loss Thursday, allowing two runs on six hits over five innings against the White Sox. He struck out three.

EDGE Analysis

Quintana was able to settle in after allowing runs in both the first and second innings, holding the White Sox off the board over his final three frames. However, the Mets couldn't overcome the early deficit, sticking Quintana with a loss in his first start since undergoing rib surgery in March. The 34-year-old left-hander had an impressive bounce-back campaign last year, where he went 6-7 with a 2.93 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 137:47 K:BB in 32 starts between Pittsburgh and St. Louis. Quintana's next start is tentatively scheduled for next week against the Yankees.

Quintana is now slated to start Thursday's game against the White Sox at Citi Field, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

When he was reinstated from the 60-day injured list this past Friday, Quintana had been in line to start Tuesday's series opener with the White Sox, but he'll instead make his Mets debut two days later after the organization's brain trust decided he could benefit from some additional rest. Quintana built up to 4.1 innings and 78 pitches in his fifth and final minor-league rehab start July 8, so he's not expected to face any major limitations from a workload standpoint when he takes the hill Thursday. The veteran southpaw is coming off a resurgent 2022 campaign split between the Cardinals and Pirates in which he posted a 2.93 ERA and 1.21 WHIP in 165.2 innings.

Quintana (rib), whom the Mets activated from the 60-day injured list Friday, is listed as the team's probable starter for Tuesday's game against the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Unless Max Scherzer's lingering neck issue prevents him from starting Sunday's series finale against the Dodgers and Quintana is pressed into action this weekend, the veteran southpaw is slated to make his team debut against one of his former teams in the White Sox. The 34-year-old Quintana enjoyed a bit of a career renaissance between stops with the Pirates and Cardinals in 2022, pitching to a 2.93 ERA and 1.21 WHIP over 32 starts. Most of Quintana's underlying ratios (4.02 SIERA, 3.86 xERA, 13.3 K-BB%) painted a less rosier picture of his performance, but even a small step back in 2023 would still make him a serviceable back-end rotation arm for the Mets. Quintana built up to 4.1 innings and 78 pitches in his most recent rehab start July 8 for Triple-A Syracuse, so he's not expected to face any major workload restrictions Tuesday.

The Mets activated Quintana (rib) from the 60-day injured list Friday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Quintana reached the 30-day limit on his rehab assignment, so his activation was merely a formality. While the Mets haven't yet announced when the left-hander will make his team debut, he'll likely make a start next week during the team's two-game home series with the White Sox. The veteran left-hander has been out all season following surgery in March on his rib cage. Quintana held a 4.60 ERA and 16:8 K:BB over 15.2 innings covering five minor-league rehab appearances.
