What's funny? That he got taken off the hook for an atrocious performance? It happens. He's got a .500 record over a significant body of work and that's likely what he'll continue to have. My analysis of Quintana isn't based on a single game or even a single season.


He didn't lose the game so it wasn't atrocious. There was a guy on the other side pitching that lost.

This. He'd have gotten a loss if he pitched atrociously.

Horrible thought from IMU.

Neither starter got a decision. Try again.

No decision > Loss

A pitcher that doesn't lose can't pitch atrociously. A pitcher that doesn't win can't pitch well. #JORRMetrics

Pitcher W / L is an indicator of performance in a given game, yes? Quintana didn't lose. He kept his team in the game and another pitcher lost. It seems pretty simple.

Quintana is a quality starter on a quality team. It is April for chrissakes. Weather blows.

Looks like he does. No wonder he can't find that MLB front office gig.

Quintana didn't get a win or a loss, yes? If you want to argue that he kept his team in the game yesterday you can, but you'll look rather idiotic doing so.

How do you define "quality starter" and "quality team"?

yeah you know there was that whole "putting the 'comeback' in 'amazing comeback' " thing that he did. it's fun to watch people try to make you eat your words but like..... holy shit. it's not like he even went 5IP to be eligible for the win... then you've got the whole 7ER thing.

He gave the offense a chance to comeback and they did.

Quintana gives up 1 run and losses and JORR screams he sucks because wins and losses are the only thing that matters. Quintana gives 90 runs and doesn't lose and JORR still screams he sucks. When you're on both sides of this argument like JORR you can't lose.

I don't believe I've ever said he sucks. Regardless, if you don't understand the difference between coming out on the short end of MANY tough close games and getting taken off the hook after allowing six runs in the first inning, I can't help you.

He buried his team, pressured his bullpen, and got lucky not to get a loss on his record. But so what? I'm not judging him on one game. I have a 190 start history.

Way too early to panic on Moncada as well.

Exactly. Anyone getting carried away with the results in April is either a Sux fan that is desperately hoping the early results are indicative of how things might go in 2018, or is just someone that doesn't trust that the kind of success the Cubs have been having the past few years could last much longer. Both are wrong and the dominance will continue.

I don’t hate anyone, but you were right.
