First, with regards to Hall. He's 26 years old and was taken in the first round of the 2017 draft by the Baltimore Orioles out of the Georgia high school ranks. He's made 42 major league apperances with the Orioles and Brewers, going 5-3 with a 4.74 ERA. He's made eight career starts, seven of which came with Milwaukee last year.

The Brewers acquired him last offseason in the deal that sent former Cy Young winner Corbin Burnes to the Orioles.

As for Quintana, he is a 13-year veteran of the Chicago White Sox, Chicago Cubs, Los Angeles Angels, San Francisco Giants, Pittsburgh Pirates, St. Louis Cardinals and Mets, Quintana is 102-103 lifetime. He owns a 3.74 ERA and helped the Mets advance to the NLCS a season ago, where they were beaten by the Dodgers in six games.

He was an All-Star in the 2016 season with the White Sox and has won double-digit games five times in his career. The White Sox eventually traded him to the Chicago Cubs in the deal that brought them Eloy Jimenez.
