That's it? If Q was an FA about to hit the market, he'd get a monster deal. A 28 year old pitcher who has been a top tier pitcher over the last 4 years in most metrics, has a WAR between 3.5-5.1 each year (and will still be about a 2 WAR this down year). He consistently eats 200 innings, ERA in low 3's, above avg K's and 28 years old. This describes a very small number of pitchers in MLB. The first 3 months of this year wouldn't effect it and it won't effect it in the trade market.
