The 37 year old is back for his 15th big league season. The deal is pending a physical.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Jesse Rogers (@JesseRogersESPN) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JesseRogersESPN\/status\/2021443056269131792?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">February 11, 2026<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>The move is an interesting one for Quintana, who signed up to play in hitter-friendly Coors Field. The 37-year-old allowed a combined 40 home runs across his last two seasons. He may very well exceed that pace if he spends the full season in Colorado.<\/p>\n<p>Quintana also joins a Rockies team projected to be one of the worst in the National League next season. The Mile High City\u2019s squad had the worst pitching staff in the majors by a mile last season. They had a league-worst 5.97 ERA as a team and ranked dead last in home runs (251) and earned runs (933) allowed.<\/p>\n<p>While Quintana is a full decade removed from his lone All-Star appearance, he remained a serviceable middle -of-the-rotation starter for the Milwaukee Brewers last season. He posted a 3.96 ERA with 89 strikeouts and a 1.29 WHIP across 24 starts with the NL Central division winner.<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Colorado Rockies have landed a veteran pitcher to add to their rotation.
