In 2023, José Quintana returned to the Mets where his MLB career began as an international signee in 2006. During his career that has spanned over a decade, Quintana has been nothing if not consistent. In eight of his last ten seasons, he has made at least 30 starts and he has pitched over 200 innings four different times. That stability is what the Mets were banking on when they signed the veteran lefty to a two-year, $26 million contract last offseason as he came off his best season yet in 2022 from a run prevention perspective.
