2 runs, 2hits, 2 walks, 4 Ks.
One bad inning and still only two runs. One well hit ball.
And he pitched a gem last time and even came in in relief.

They have such a quick hook in the playoffs. Q pitched well against a very good team. Not great, but better than respectable. The Cubs are allowed to score more than two runs.

Had he pitched 6 or 7 innings, it would have been his typical White Sox start with those numbers.

Fine numbers, good guy, can’t win.

$25 says he wins at least 15 next year. Are we on, Tim? Or better yet, if I lose I buy you a ticket to a game in 2019 and pay for your beers during the game. Shit, the Sox might even be worth watching by then.

I’ll do that. Or, since I am not yet a Neanderthal who believes wins are the end all and be all, we can bet that in his games stated , the Cubs win 60%. Wouldn’t that be a more modern day statistical way to do it? So if he starts 30 games, the cubs have to go 18-12. Either way is acceptable to me.
And let’s also say he has to make at least 20 starts. If he’s injured it shouldn’t count. If the Cubs go 3-2 in his only 5 starts, that’s not a true bet. Pick either way. I’m ok with both. 15 actual wind or 60% team wins v

Either is fine with me, too. I thought the whole thing was about actual WINS, but we can make it about winning percentage of starts. 60% of starts as long as he starts 20 or more. That's cool.

it is about wins, but really its about team wins ...that's where the starting pitcher makes his money in my view ..if he pitches 8 inning of shutout ball, leaving with the score 0-0, another guy pitches the 9th and his team scores in the bottom of the ninth, he doesn't get the win, but he did win the game ...my contention with Quintana is that his team doesn't win when he pitches ...or they win as often as he loses them the game ....when they score 9 he'll pitch a shut out, but let them score 3 and he lets in 4, or 5 ...so the 60% team wins with at least 20 starts is good with me

All good. It'll give me something to follow next season if the Sox suck ass.

As expected, Quintana folded like a cheap tent in game 5 and couldn't make it 3 innings. The shortest outing by any Cubs pitcher in the last 3 years of playoff appearances.

Q's numbers don't reveal how truly ineffective he can be. It is like his brain turns off without warning or something.

Meanwhile, Eloy Jiminez is tearing up the Fall League. I hope he pans out.

But of course he is. Brock/Broglio will pale in comparison to this trade.

I'm off to a good start, Tim. One month looksee at this....
He's 3-1 in record.
Team's 4-1 in his starts.
This Eloy guy better be good! LOL.

If he can just pitch against Milwaukee, he'll be fine.
Funny how you give him credit for the Cubs winning when he started in the game where they had one of the biggest late-inning comebacks in recent memory. Yeah, that's all his doing.
I'm hearing that Eloy is hitting the shit out of the ball.

Yeah, clearly Q had nothing to do with the comeback. It's just the way the little bet is constructed. Either Q wins 15, or the Cubs need to win 60% of the games he starts in order for me to win the bet. Any other outcome, Tim wins. Winner gets a date with Bel.

Ahh. I must have overlooked (or forgotten) that there was a bet.

Loser has to watch the winner go on a date with Bel.

If I may just offer this prediction...I don't think he'll be getting his 4th win tonight.

Let the record show I posted that before he gave up a 3-run shot in the bottom of the 2nd.

88 pitches through 4 innings, and he was yanked. If we can score, with his ass on the bench, we might have a shot to win this game.

He's hot garbage. Leadoff man got on every inning. Everyone takes counts deep against him. He just flat out sucks if he's not facing Milwaukee.
