There’s no other way to say it, Cal Quantrill has been a total workhorse for the Cleveland Guardians since he came over from San Diego. He’s made 80 appearances including 56 starts, pitching 350.2 innings, and — especially during that turbulent 2021 season where it seemed like nobody was healthy and the pitching staff was held together by twine, spit, and wishes — he was the guy they could at least hope could be a stopper.
Quantrill is good, something short of an ace, and the kind of pitcher that most teams love to have a couple of.
