Blake Snell Opts Out Of Deal With San Francisco
3 weeks agoSan Francisco Giants starting pitcher Blake Snell is opting out of his two-year deal with the San Francisco Giants and will test the open market according to Alex Pavlovic. The 31-year-old had a tale of two seasons in his debut campaign in San Francisco. Through the first-half, the southpaw he held a 6.31 ERA and a 1.43 WHIP and was hindered by several injuries. However, after the All-Star break, Snell returned to his Cy Young form as he logged 68 1/3 innings to the tune of a stellar 1.45 ERA, 0.85 WHIP, with a 27:103 BB:K ratio. Given his performance down the stretch, Snell will likely be in line to receive a large contract and will be a popular starting pitcher taken early in drafts this upcoming offseason.
