We can’t get him, need to reset the tax. Tbh after cease, I’m content, only missing a lefty but we got some nasty lefties in the pen (peralta, Matsui, crosgrove) so not as bad
What exactly does he need to be scouted for? He won the Cy Young last season

If he signs with the Giants. . .
I love Blake but they need to know he starts the season slow. Early season Blake is not the same as late season Blake. Without spring training it might take a while to develop. Good luck to him as long as it’s not in our division
He’s far more likely to go back to being an inconsistent, 5 inning starter with elevated injury risk and whose walks bite him in the ass than he is to continue his run from last year. Completely fine to let another team sign him to a long term deal (or a 1 year prove it deal) and forfeit draft picks for the privilege
Hoping the Astros sign him lol
Seems like traction is favoring the Astros here
After the Dylan Cease trade it basically guaranteed Snell going to a new team. It sucks but that’s business
Just one time, I want to hear scouts say “He looked like Dog shit”
Why are they fucking with Blake so much? Must be so frustrating
4 innings is mid season Blake!
He is the fucking CY young winner, how the duck are scouts not impressed?

We have right handed Blake Snell for 1/4 the cost
