Mason Black, you’re up.

My man really sold the whole staying in shape and season-ready thing he had talked about. This is pretty much worst case scenario, now we have to wait a couple weeks for him to start ramping up AGAIN
Edit: reading now that the timeline for these injuries is usually 6-8 weeks, fucking fade me
Well shit, this is just delaying even further his top form (assuming we’re treating his first few starts as spring training-like). Positive side though: Giants have a chance to win today now
We all need to be careful about hating on Snell too much. He will come around and once he does he won’t forget the ‘hate’ in the beginning. Hoping he stays for more than one year!
FFS
So does this mean when he’s back we get another month “Spring Training” starts? Thought he was staying in shape and game ready through his holdout…
Sheesh..
Just imagine where our team would be if he’d shown up to his three starts and pitched even half-decently…
Gah, was looking to watching him pitch today…I guess a sweep will suffice.
Cobb about to beat Snell back to the rotation
This is going well…
So glad we didn’t pay the Boras tax for this dude. Lol
In hindsight, paying a starter to miss spring training was never a good idea
Little phantom IL stint to attempt to save his confidence. We’re fucked
Sooooo looks like he WILL be opting in for a second year with us 😂😭
This is the most reactionary subreddit. You people are absurd.
at least we have starter depth (eventually) if this thing drags on
I presume this was why he’s been off. Rather have him at 100% and effective than 60% and bad
*”Suckers!”*

That’s rough. Felt like his last start (minus when he started giving up all the runs) was a bit better than his last two
Sweet, now maybe he’ll get some time to pitch in the minors and make up for missing out on a spring training tune-up.
Next update will hopefully include a rehab assignment.
Boras sure does have a decent amount of clients who sign big money deals, only to have a relatively major injury occur/be in place and become damaged goods soon after inking their contracts.
I’m just gonna say I wanted Montgomery all along. Btw, Montgomery is currently dealing against the Cardinals.
He really should find a new agent like Montgomery did.
If only he stayed in shape during the off season and didn’t hold out until the absolute last minute to sign for way less money. He’s still cashing in 32 million this year, but he’s bad, not healthy, not ready to pitch, and could’ve secured a bigger bag if not for the terrible misread of the market by Boras.
6-8 weeks is for a more serious injury. A few articles I read says up to two weeks for a grade 1 strain. Assuming that’s what he has.

Damn. Shoulda given him that standing O sooner.
Didn’t see that one coming. What is that, 3 starts.
This is honestly fine, I was afraid Keaton Winn wasn’t going to have a place soon, and dude is dealing

Heading to the game today, slightly sadder…
