"Cal Quantrill was the first player to suit up for the Atlanta Braves whose last name started with a "Q." That might be the nicest thing you can say about his season. He spent a few weeks with the Braves trying to fill the injury-created void in the starting rotation, but it was a forgettable, if not outright disastrous, two games for the seven-year veteran."
"Quantrill was the eighth overall pick by the San Diego Padres in the 2016 draft. After his debut with the Padres in 2019, he was shipped to Cleveland as part of a massive nine-player trade in 2020. The Guardians then traded him to the Colorado Rockies after the 2023 season. He parted the Rockies for the Miami Marlins as a free agent in the 2024-2025 off-season."
Cal Quantrill experienced a turbulent season characterized by inconsistent performance and frequent roster moves. He made only two ineffective starts for the Atlanta Braves after being claimed on waivers following struggles with the Miami Marlins. Quantrill’s major-league career began as a 2016 first-round pick and included stops with San Diego, Cleveland, Colorado, and Miami before the Braves and then a minor-league deal with Texas. Early career strengths included pitch-to-contact results and a low HR/FB rate, but those advantages eroded over recent seasons. Career trajectory shifted from mid-rotation stability toward short-term relief and fringe roster status.
