Pitch Repertoire At-A-Glance

Jose Quintana has thrown 36,216 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2012 and 2026, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season, The World Baseball Classic and Spring Training. In 2026, they have relied primarily on their Fourseam Fastball (90mph) and Sinker (91mph), also mixing in a Change (85mph), Curve (79mph) and Slider (80mph).


In 2026, compared to other LHP:
Their fourseam fastball is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, is straight as an arrow, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' fourseamers, has some natural sinking action and has essentially average velo. Their sinker is a real worm killer that generates an extreme number of groundballs compared to other pitchers' sinkers and has less armside run than typical. Their change dives down out of the zone, generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' changeups, is much firmer than usual and results in many more groundballs compared to other pitchers' changeups. Their curve is basically never swung at and missed compared to other pitchers' curves, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' curves and is slightly harder than usual. Their slider (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 19 of them in 2026) generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sliders, sweeps across the zone, results in more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement.
