The Brewers declined Quintana's $15 million mutual option for 2026 on Tuesday. The veteran left-hander will be given a $2 million buyout instead. Quintana made 24 regular-season starts for the Brewers this season, finishing with a 3.96 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 89:50 K:BB over 131.2 frames. The southpaw will turn 37 in January but should be able to land a decent contract from a club in need of a back-end starter.

Quintana took the loss Friday against the Dodgers in Game 4 of the NLCS after allowing three earned runs on six hits and a walk while striking out one batter in two-plus innings. Quintana was hardly able to get comfortable on the mound before Shohei Ohtani blasted a 446-foot home run against him to begin the first inning. Mookie Betts and Will Smith followed with a couple of singles and were brought home on a Tommy Edman single and Teoscar Hernandez groundout. Los Angeles wasn't able to score any more runs off Quintana, but consistent pressure forced the left-hander out of the game after just 49 pitches. With Milwaukee's season now over, the 36-year-old will turn his attention to free agency. He figures to receive interest on the open market after posting a 3.96 ERA and 1.29 WHIP across 131.2 innings in the regular season.

Quintana will start Friday's NLCS Game 4 against the Dodgers, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. The veteran lefty became the obvious choice to take the ball in Game 4 after the Brewers opted to go with Aaron Ashby as the opener and Jacob Misiorowski as the bulk reliever in Game 3. Quintana has made one appearance so far this postseason, tossing three scoreless innings in NLDS Game 3 versus the Cubs. He'll be tasked Friday with helping the Brewers stave off elimination.

Quintana is likely to pitch in Game 4 of the NLCS versus the Dodgers on Friday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. Quintana had been a candidate to see work in Game 3, but the Brewers will go with Aaron Ashby as the opener and Jacob Misiorowski as the bulk reliever Thursday. It's unclear whether Quintana will make a traditional start or serve in a bulk relief role Friday, but in either case he'll likely soak up most of the innings for Milwaukee in Game 4. The veteran southpaw tossed three scoreless innings out of the bullpen in NLDS Game 3 against the Cubs in his lone appearance this postseason.

Quintana (calf) threw 45 pitches in a simulated game Friday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. Manager Pat Murphy said he thought Quintana threw "fantastic" Friday. The left-hander is tracking toward being available for the start of the NLDS on Oct. 4. Quintana is recovering from a strained left calf and becomes eligible for reinstatement Tuesday.
