Paul Quantrill

Paul John Quantrill (born November 3, 1968) is a former Major League Baseball right-handed relief pitcher. He earned a reputation for being very durable and having impeccable control. He regularly appeared in 80 or more games a season and did not walk more than 25 batters in a season since 1996. Commentators often joked that he had a "rubber arm".

Career

Quantrill was drafted in 1986 by the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 26th round, 660th overall, and again by the Boston Red Sox in the sixth round of the 1989 amateur draft, 161st overall, and made his Major League debut on July 20, 1992. Originally considered a starter, Quantrill eventually found consistency as a reliever after several years of splitting time between the bullpen and the starting rotation for several teams. Some of his best years came for the Toronto Blue Jays, a team located in his home province of Ontario.

Quantrill allowed a game-winning home run to Boston Red Sox DH David Ortiz in Game 4 of the 2004 American League Championship Series. Boston avoided elimination in this game and went on to win its first World Series in 86 years.

Famous quotes by Paul Quantrill:

"He found it to be a bit of a cold place,"

"I am here because I do enjoy playing the game, ... I'm not sure I'm going to pursue playing baseball in the future. It's better for me to finish the season, be professional about it and see if I can't help this team. That's the real reason I'm here, not to prove anything."

"Gun for hire, ... Hopefully I can help out, and help these guys. I'm really just here to see if I can help out a little bit."

"I put some thought in it and decided to come on down and see if I can't help this team in some shape and form to get into the playoffs,"

"This team is very well balanced. In playing this team, they have a very balanced lineup. They have different ways to score. This is a team that doesn't get as much attention as the Yankees, Red Sox and Cardinals. Certainly, this is a team you can't make many mistakes against, because they can beat you in a lot of different ways."

"I've said it all year, this is in my opinion the best team in the [National League] East, for sure."

"You have to show up every day and expect to win. I didn't get my job done and at that point it's the end of the line."

"He's only been out of the game [as a player] for a couple years. Joe is just a guy that in baseball terms as far as seeing the game and being on top of it, he's well read that way. I think he takes a lot of pride in that part of the game."

"The only reason I'll be going is to see if I can rattle Roger Clemens."

"I'm not making any bets on that game. South Africa impressed me, they battled us. They were a bunch of young athletic players. They impressed me as much as our young guys impressed me."
