DL Hall Placed on 60-Day Injured List
The Milwaukee Brewers have made a strategic move by placing left-handed pitcher DL Hall on the 60-day injured list due to a lat problem. This procedural decision has paved the way for the official signing of Jose Quintana to a one-year deal with the team. The announcement was shared by Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, indicating that the Brewers have now secured Quintana for the upcoming season.
DL Hall’s Background and Impact
DL Hall, a 26-year-old pitcher, was originally drafted in the first round of the 2017 draft by the Baltimore Orioles from Georgia high school. With experience in 42 major league appearances split between the Orioles and Brewers, Hall holds a record of 5-3 with a 4.74 ERA. Notably, he has made eight career starts, mostly with the Brewers during the previous season after being acquired in a trade involving Corbin Burnes. This move to the injured list has opened up a valuable roster spot for the Brewers.
Jose Quintana’s Career Highlights
On the other hand, Jose Quintana brings a wealth of experience to the Milwaukee Brewers, having played for multiple teams over his 13-year career, including the Chicago White Sox, Chicago Cubs, Los Angeles Angels, San Francisco Giants, Pittsburgh Pirates, St. Louis Cardinals, and Mets. With a lifetime record of 102-103 and a solid 3.74 ERA, Quintana has been a reliable presence on the mound. His contributions helped the Mets reach the NLCS last season, although they were ultimately defeated by the Dodgers. Quintana’s achievements include being an All-Star in 2016 and securing double-digit wins on five occasions throughout his career.
This strategic maneuver by the Milwaukee Brewers reflects their commitment to strengthening their roster for the upcoming season, with DL Hall’s injury paving the way for Jose Quintana’s official signing. Stay tuned for more updates on the team’s preparations for the upcoming season.
