Blake Snell On Track For Simulated Game Saturday
5 years agoTampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Blake Snell (elbow) played catch on Wednesday and said his elbow was fine. However, it looks like he'll throw a simulated game on Saturday instead of facing the Blue Jays in a Grapefruit League game. Snell's couldn't find his command in his return to the mound in spring action earlier this week, but the biggest takeaway is that his left arm feels fine after having some concerns earlier in camp. As long as he can avoid any further setbacks, the 2018 American League Cy Young should be ready for Opening Day. But at the cost of a low-end ace in fantasy drafts, there are definitely concerns and risk involved.
