José Quintana was claimed off of waivers from the Los Angeles Angels on August 30th, 2021. He elected free agency on October 15th, thus ending his one and a half month long tenure with the San Francisco Giants.
In that time he pitched a total of 9.2 innings and appeared in 5 games. But no matter how brief the run, Quintana–much like Warren Spahn and Carlos Beltran–can legally claim to be #forevergiant, thus he is worthy of our scholarship.
Quintana, a ten year veteran, was signed with the hopes of being a multi-inning option in the middle of games, as well as an option to start games if it was needed.
