Those that follow the San Diego Padres farm system may not have written Cal Quantrill off this season, however, the energy and enthusiasm surrounding him have noticeably decreased. With the likes of MacKenzie Gore and Luis Patino in the lower minors, along with the continued success of now major leaguers Brett Kennedy and Jacob Nix, Quantrill seemed to get lost among the seemingly endless amount of pitching prospects in the system.
The right-handed prospect also dropped to 10th on the latest MLB Pipeline rankings of Padres top prospects and out of the Top 100, overall.
