The 36-year-old pitcher, known for his success against Milwaukee, joins the Brewers to bolster their rotation pending a physical.

José Quintana has agreed to a one-year, $4.25 million contract with the Milwaukee Brewers, pending a physical, according to multiple reports.
Quintana, 36, had a strong 2024 season with the New York Mets, posting a 3.75 ERA across 31 starts and delivering a stellar late-season stretch with a 2.77 ERA in his final 18 starts.
