Blake Snell Placed On Injured List With Groin Strain
3 years agoThe San Diego Padres placed starting pitcher Blake Snell (groin) on the 10-day injured list on Wednesday due to a strained groin. Snell suffered the injury during his last outing against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday. He was forced to exit the start in the first inning and the team has been monitoring him closely throughout the week. He was scheduled to make his next start against the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday, but the Padres will need to find another option now. The team signed recently-released veteran Vince Velasquez on Wednesday and he appears to be primed for a start at some point this weekend. Fantasy managers should stash Snell on an IL spot, but there's a decent chance that we've seen the last of him this season.
