As the New York Mets mull over whether they are going to be sellers at the MLB trade deadline on Aug. 1, several teams are keeping a close eye on pitcher José Quintana, according to SNY's MLB Insider Andy Martino.
Martino reported that rival clubs were monitoring Quintana's progress throughout his five-game rehab stint and his 2023 debut Thursday against the White Sox in which he allowed two runs on six hits in five innings, striking out three and walking none.
Due to offseason rib surgery in March, Quintana had a late start to the season after signing a two-year deal with New York back in December.
