Blake Snell signs 2-year deal with Giants
The San Francisco Giants have signed free agent pitcher Blake Snell to a 2-year deal worth $62 million.
What It Means:
Snell was one of the final free agent dominos to fall as the MLB season approaches. Despite interest from several teams, the 2023 NL Cy Young winner will head to San Francisco on a 2-year deal.
Snell pitched to a 2.25 ERA over 180 innings in his second Cy Young-winning season, but his 1.189 WHIP and league-high 99 walks are cause for slight concern heading into the upcoming season. Still, he struck out batters at an elite rate, averaging 11.7 K/9 and should continue to strike batters out in San Francisco.
