Wed Apr 1605:30Quinn Priester Picks Up Win On Tuesday
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Quinn Priester pitched well in a 5-0 win over the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday. Priester tossed five scoreless innings, allowing just one hit, walking three, and striking out four to earn his first win of the season. The 24-year-old hurler notched seven swinging strikes while keeping the Detroit hitters off balance for much of the outing. Priester has looked good in his two starts for the Brewers after they acquired him from the Boston Red Sox in a trade last week. He is worth considering as a streamer in deeper leagues moving forward.

Mon Apr 1415:34Quinn Priester To Make Another Start On Wednesday
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Quinn Priester will make another start for the Brewers and is lined up to pitch on Wednesday against the Detroit Tigers and right-hander Jack Flaherty at American Family Field. To keep Priester in the starting rotation for another turn, the Brewers are moving Elvin Rodriguez to the bullpen. The 24-year-old Priester was acquired in a trade from the Boston Red Sox last week and looked good in his debut with Milwaukee last week against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field, allowing one earned run on six hits while walking two and striking out fur in five innings pitched. He'll have a bit more of a difficult matchup this time around in Detroit, but Priester is still worth streaming considering in deeper leagues. When both Tobias Myers (oblique) and Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) return from the injured list, Priester might not have a spot left in the rotation, though.

Thu Apr 1021:34Quinn Priester Posts No-Decision In Team Debut
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Quinn Priester looked solid on the mound during his team debut against the Colorado Rockies on Thursday. The right-hander was recently traded to Milwaukee from the Boston Red Sox earlier this week. The Brewers are a bit banged up in the starting rotation, so they could use Priester right now. He looked good as he tossed five innings, allowing five hits, one earned run, and striking out four batters in the no-decision. Priester really didn't give up any damage outside of a leadoff solo home run in the opening frame. He's unlikely to stick in the rotation long term, but figures to make at least another start. If he does, Priester would be in line to face the Detroit Tigers early next week. He could offer some low-end streaming value in that start.

Tue Apr 819:22Quinn Priester Looks Set To Start On Thursday
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Quinn Priester, who was recently acquired in a trade with the Boston Red Sox, is a good bet to start Thursday's series finale against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Todd Rosiak. Once a top prospect in the Pittsburgh Pirates organization, the 24-year-old will get the first shot at replacing lefty Nestor Cortes (elbow) in Milwaukee's starting rotation, although he'll be a very risky streamer in his first MLB start at Coors Field this week. In 11 outings (seven starts) with the Pirates and Red Sox in 2024, Priester had a 4.71 ERA and 1.41 WHIP with 33 strikeouts and 14 walks in 49 2/3 innings. The former first-rounder allowed two earned runs while walking none and fanning six in four innings in his lone start at Triple-A Worcester before the trade. Priester is merely a flier in NL-only leagues at the moment.

Mon Apr 712:24Quinn Priester Shipped Off To Milwaukee
The Boston Red Sox have traded pitcher Quinn Priester to the Milwaukee Brewers for minor-league outfielder Yophery Rodriguez, a competitive-balance Round A draft pick, and a player to be named later, or cash considerations. Boston acquired Priester from the Pittsburgh Pirates at last season's trade deadline. Though the 24-year-old hadn't entirely adjusted to his move last year, he pitched to a solid 3.21 ERA and 1.07 WHIP (33.2 innings) with 36 strikeouts in seven starts for Triple-A Indianapolis. On the other hand, Rodriguez hadn't shown much in Single-A ball with the Carolina Mudcats in 2024 but started this season scorching hot at High-A Wisconsin, batting .417 (5-for-12) with a double, triple, and three runs scored. With Milwaukee's rotation depth in disarray -- including the most recent injury to Nestor Cortes (elbow) -- a move was necessitated to bolster their reserves.

Tue Mar 412:13Richard Fitts, Quinn Priester Could Be Battling For Fifth Rotation Spot
If Boston Red Sox right-hander Brayan Bello (shoulder) starts the year on the injured list, right-handers Richard Fitts or Quinn Priester are real possibilities to open the 2025 regular season in the No. 5 starting rotation spot for Boston, according to MLB.com's Ian Browne. Bello could miss his first two turns through the rotation to begin the year, even if he avoids setbacks with his shoulder going forward. Fitts has the ability to miss bats and looked good in a small sample size (20 2/3 innings) for the BoSox last year, posting a nice 1.74 ERA, nine strikeouts and seven walks in four starts. The 25-year-old has also struck out five in four scoreless innings so far this spring. Priester, 24, was a former top prospect of the Pirates. He has so far given up one run while striking out one and walking three in two spring starts for Boston. Either Fitts or Priester would merely low-upside, short-term streaming options if they open the year in the rotation.

Thu Feb 2014:15Quinn Priester To Start Grapefruit League Opener On Saturday
Boston Red Sox right-hander Quinn Priester, who was acquired at last year's trade deadline from the Pittsburgh Pirates for Nick Yorke, is scheduled to start the team's Grapefruit League opener on Saturday against the division-rival Tampa Bay Rays. If the Red Sox need an extra starter to open the 2025 season, Priester will be an option out of Triple-A Worcester. In addition to Priester, the Red Sox have additional starting depth in Richard Fitts and Cooper Criswell. Michael Fulmer (elbow) is also an option while recovering from Tommy John surgery. Left-hander Garrett Crochet will start on Sunday against the division-rival Toronto Blue Jays. Because he's likely to spend the majority of the 2025 season on the farm in the minors, Priester can be ignored in all mixed fantasy leagues this spring.

Sun Sep 29 202412:13Quinn Priester Promoted Ahead Of Sunday's Start
Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Quinn Priester was recalled ahead of his start on Sunday afternoon. Priester has spent his entire time in the Red Sox organization pitching for Triple-A and will be set to make his Boston debut on the final day of the regular season. Through 38 1/3 innings at Triple-A Worcester, the former Bucco held a 5.40 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, with a 12:42 BB:K ratio. In 44 innings at the major league level in the Steel City this summer, Priester posted a 5.04 ERA and a 1.46 WHIP. The 24-year-old has continued to show growing pains against the top level of the minor leagues and the majors and should not be considered as a streaming option this afternoon.

Mon Aug 5 202413:30Quinn Priester Struggles In First Appearance Since Trade
Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Quinn Priester took the mound for Triple-A Worcester on Sunday, completing 2 1/3 innings and allowing eight runs on six hits and four walks while striking out four. Throughout this season, Priester has been bouncing between Triple-A and MLB, combining for a 5.02 ERA in 80 2/3 total innings. After spending most of July in the big leagues, he was demoted to Triple-A after the Red Sox acquired him from Pittsburgh. Unless a pitcher in Boston's current rotation has to miss time, Priester will likely need to improve before he's recalled to the majors.

Mon Jul 29 202415:20Red Sox Acquire Quinn Priester From The Pirates
The Boston Red Sox acquired right-hander Quinn Priester from the Pittsburgh Pirates on Monday in exchange for infield prospect Nick Yorke, according to sources. Priester, once a top pitching prospect for Pittsburgh, will now head to Boston, where he'll serve as organizational starting pitching depth. The 23-year-old former 18th overall pick in 2019 will most likely be heading to Triple-A Worcester and can be left on the waiver wire in single-year fantasy leagues for the time being. Priester made his big-league debut last year and went 2-6 in 10 appearances (six starts) for the Bucs this year while posting a 5.04 ERA (4.81 FIP) and 1.45 WHIP with a 31:13 K:BB in 44 2/3 frames. The Red Sox will be hoping they can turn Priester around in the long term for a rotation spot down the road after he's posted an unattractive 6.46 ERA in 94 2/3 innings so far in the majors the last two years.

Tue Jul 9 202419:24Quinn Priester Activated, Edward Olivares Optioned To Triple-A
The Pittsburgh Pirates activated right-hander Quinn Priester (lat) from the 15-day injured list on Tuesday and optioned outfielder Edward Olivares to Triple-A Indianapolis in a corresponding move. The team also outrighted left-hander Justin Bruihl to Indy after he was designated for assignment and cleared waivers. Priester, who has been up and down for the Pirates as a starter in 2024, should make his first start off the IL this weekend in an excellent matchup against the Chicago White Sox. The 24-year-old went five innings in his final minor-league rehab start and currently carries a 4.83 ERA in 31 2/3 innings (six starts) in his second year in the majors. Olivares will get the boot back to the farm after Joshua Palacios has emerged as the team's regular in right field of late. Olivares is hitting just .224 (39-for-174) with five home runs and 23 RBI.

Fri Jul 5 202420:27Quinn Priester Continues To Build Up His Arm
Pittsburgh Pirates right-hander Quinn Priester (lat) made his second minor-league rehab appearance with Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday and went five innings, giving up an earned run on three hits (one homer) while walking none and striking out six. Now that rookie right-hander Jared Jones (lat) is on the 15-day injured list and is out through the All-Star break, Priester is a candidate to take his place in Pittsburgh's starting rotation before the All-Star break. The 23-year-old former 18th overall pick in 2019 struggled in his first taste of the big leagues last year, posting a 7.74 ERA and 1.70 WHIP with 36 K's and 27 walks in 10 outings (eight starts) over 50 innings. Priester has gone 0-5 so far in 2024 with a 4.83 ERA and 1.55 WHIP with a 20:10 K:BB in his six starts. There could be plenty more ups and downs for the young Priester once he returns to Pittsburgh's rotation.

Mon Apr 22 202417:46Quinn Priester Making Another Start Wednesday
Pittsburgh Pirates right-hander Quinn Priester will get another start on Wednesday to face the visiting Milwaukee Brewers. Priester will get another shot at it for Pittsburgh despite allowing five runs (four earned) on seven hits (three home runs) with one walk in 4 1/3 innings in his season debut last Friday against the Boston Red Sox. The 23-year-old is going to need to do better this week against a tough Brewers lineup if he wants any chance of remaining in the Pirates' rotation moving forward. The former 18th overall pick in 2019 out of high school just hasn't been very good so far in the big leagues, dating back to his debut in 2023, as he's gone 3-4 with a 7.79 ERA and 1.71 WHIP with 28 walks and 38 strikeouts in 54 1/3 innings over 11 outings (nine starts).

Thu Apr 18 202417:08Quinn Priester Expected To Start Against Boston On Friday
Pittsburgh Pirates right-hander Quinn Priester is expected to be called up from Triple-A Indianapolis to make his first major-league start of the year on Friday against the Boston Red Sox, according to a source. The former 18th overall pick in 2019 out of high school struggled in his big-league debut last year by going 3-3 with a 7.74 ERA (6.74 FIP) and 1.70 WHIP with 27 walks and 36 strikeouts in 50 innings over 10 appearances (eight starts) for the Bucs. However, the 23-year-old was looking better with a 3.95 ERA, five walks and 20 K's in 13 2/3 innings in his first three starts for Indy this year. Priester could stick in Pittsburgh's starting rotation until left-hander Marco Gonzales (forearm) is able to return, but at best, he'll be a shaky streaming option in deeper fantasy leagues.

Tue Apr 2 202418:39Quinn Priester Strikes Out Nine In Opener
Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Quinn Priester no longer has true prospect eligibility by MLB's standards, but he should be viewed as one given that he is 23 years old, still in Triple-A, and has 10 big league appearances under his belt. The right-hander gets good velocity behind his mid-90s heater and misses plenty of bats with his curveball. Priester appeared in the big league portion of Spring Training but reverted to the Triple-A roster for Opening Day. In his first outing of the campaign, he lasted 5.2 innings, allowing just one run, one hit, and one walk while striking out nine batters. He figures to be a long-term contributor for Pittsburgh.

Mon Apr 1 202419:53Quinn Priester Excels In First Start
Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitching prospect Quinn Priester performed well in his first start of the season for Triple-A Indianapolis on Sunday. The right-hander went 5 2/3 innings and allowed one hit, one run, one walk and struck out nine on the evening. Priester missed a spot in the big-league rotation, but remains one of their best pitching prospects behind Paul Skenes. Priester struggled in his brief time in the big leagues this past season, but some more seasoning in Triple-A may be just what the young right-hander needs. Even though Paul Skenes is the hot name amongst Pirates prospects, Priester might have the upper hand on a promotion, should the idea present itself early in the season.

Wed Mar 6 202409:25Quinn Priester Trying To Break Camp
Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Quinn Priester allowed one run on two hits with one walk and one strikeout against the Toronto Blue Jays in Tuesday's Grapefruit League contest. The 23-year-old came on in relief in this contest but will remain in a starting role, either for the Pirates or in Triple-A. Priester entered last season as the Pirates' top pitching prospect, but struggled during his rookie campaign by posting a 7.74 ERA and 1.70 WHIP across eight starts (10 appearances) at the big-league level. Still, Priester remains one of the Pirates' top prospects and will continue to make a case to break camp in the starting rotation, with Bailey Falter being his main competition. Priester can be ignored in redraft leagues for now, with his biggest value being in dynasty platforms.

Mon Jul 17 202301:29Quinn Priester Starting Monday
Pittsburgh Pirates top prospect Quinn Priester will make his MLB debut on Monday against the Cleveland Guardians. The Pirates' No. 4 prospect owns a mediocre 4.31 ERA, 1.36 WHIP, and 84:35 K/BB ratio in Triple-A this season, but the Bucs need pitching help immediately and are hoping Priester can give them that. For now, it is best to leave the rookie on the waiver wire in redraft leagues outside of NL-only and 15-teamers. He makes for a risky streaming option on Monday, even with a good matchup. Keep a close eye on the 22-year-old, though, as he has some upside for the rest of the season.

Sat Jul 15 202313:07Quinn Priester Expected To Be Promoted Next Week
Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher and top-prospect Quinn Priester is expected to be promoted for his MLB debut next week, per beat writer Jason Mackey. Priester was the Pirates' first-round selection (18th overall) in the 2019 draft and is considered the team's fourth-best prospect, according to MLB Pipeline. The 22-year-old righty owns a 4.31 ERA, 1.36 WHIP, and 84:35 K/BB ratio across 87 2/3 innings (18 starts) with Triple-A Indianapolis. Priester will likely make his MLB debut on Monday or Tuesday against the Cleveland Guardians. He's worth a stream in NL-only and deep mixed leagues due to his prospect pedigree.

Wed May 17 202309:36Quinn Priester Performing Well For Triple-A
Pittsburgh Pirates pitching prospect Quinn Priester put together his best performance of the season for Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday. The right-hander tossed a season-high seven innings and allowed five hits, one run, one walk and struck out nine. The nine strikeouts matched his previous high for the season. The former first round pick in 2019 missed some time in 2022 with an oblique injury, but that hasn't slowed his development as he is knocking on the door for a chance with the Pirates in 2023. Priester offers a four-pitch mix, with his curveball being his best pitch and a fastball in the 90's. For the season, the 22-year-old owns a 4.66 ERA with 42 strikeouts in 38 2/3 innings over eight starts. Don't let the ERA confuse you as most of that was due to a bad outing that he had in his first start of the season that he allowed six runs in. He is a name for managers in dynasty and redraft leagues to consider stashing with the Pirates needing pitching and having the ability to be patient with their young arm during a rebuild season.
