Wed Sep 1800:07Blake Snell Carves Up Orioles With 12 Strikeouts
San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Blake Snell continued his stellar second half in Tuesday's 10-0 win over the Orioles. Snell pitched six innings, allowing just one hit and two walks with 12 strikeouts. The 31-year-old was barely startable for fantasy managers in the first half of the season but has been outstanding in the second half. He now owns a 4-0 record with a 1.59 ERA, a 0.88 WHIP, and 94 strikeouts in 11 second-half starts and 62 1/3 IP. Snell will face another tough matchup in his next start at the Royals, but fantasy managers should have him in their rotation for his final few starts of the season.

Thu Sep 521:32Blake Snell Pulled After One Inning
San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Blake Snell gave a short outing on the mound during Thursday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Snell struggled heavily as he needed 42 pitches to get out of the first inning. He gave up two hits, allowed one earned run, and walked two batters during his short lived outing. The veteran southpaw didn't have his command, but will certainly get plenty of rest before his next start against the Milwaukee Brewers. Snell has been solid with five quality starts in his last five outings. These kinds of performances will frustrate fantasy managers, but they will need to stick with him.

Mon Aug 1900:58Blake Snell Continues Dominant Run
San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Blake Snell continued to pitch like an ace on Sunday, tossing seven innings of one-run ball against the Oakland Athletics. Snell allowed six hits and two walks while striking out 10. The lefty has been on a tear since returning from the IL on July 9, allowing just six runs in 52 IP (0.97 ERA) with 70 strikeouts. Snell has excelled in the second half for the last three seasons, and at this point it appears to be something to pay attention to come draft season. Even if he starts slow, he is more than likely going to have a stretch like the one we are seeing now and possibly win some fantasy leagues.

Tue Aug 1309:12Blake Snell Fans 11 In No-Decision
San Francisco Giants pitcher Blake Snell fanned 11 batters in Monday's 1-0 loss to the Atlanta Braves. Snell finished with a no-decision despite taking a no-hitter into the seventh and allowed just two hits and three walks in 6 1/3 innings. He has struck out at least 11 batters in three of his last four starts and is on a six-start stretch which has seen Snell fan 57 batters in 40 1/3 innings. He is 2-3 with a very deceptive 3.91 ERA and 1.07 WHIP, striking out 91 and walking 28 in 69 innings. Snell gets a solid matchup in his next start when he faces the Oakland Athletics on Sunday.

Sat Aug 300:14Blake Snell Blanks Reds In First Career No-Hitter
San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Blake Snell tossed the 18th no-hitter in Giants franchise history in Friday's masterful start against the Cincinnati Reds at the Great American Ball Park, striking out 11 batters during nine magnificent innings of no-run ball. The Reds had no answers for Snell on Friday night. He threw a season-high 114 pitches, walking three in the outing. We witnessed Snell go on an absolute tear with the San Diego Padres during the final three quarters of the 2023 season, and he could be embarking on a second-half surge in San Francisco. Over his last five starts since coming off the injured list on July 9, the 31-year-old reigning National League Cy Young Award winner has a microscopic 0.55 ERA to go with 41 punchouts and 10 walks across 33 frames. Snell's next act will come on Wednesday in a good chance to keep the good times rolling against the hosting Washington Nationals at Nationals Park.

Sun Jul 2809:02Yankees Among Six Teams Interested In Blake Snell
The New York Yankees are one of six teams that have inquired about the availability of San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Blake Snell. The reigning NL Cy Young winner has already hit the IL twice this season, making just 10 starts so far, but is coming off of a start on Saturday in which he went six innings, allowing no runs on just two hits and two walks while striking out a career-high 15 batters. The Giants may not be sellers, however, as they have won four of their last five games and sit just 4.5 games out of a Wild Card spot. The Yankees on the other hand have already made a splash in the trade market, acquiring outfielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. from the Marlins on Saturday.

Sat Jul 2722:14Blake Snell Fans 15 In No-Decision Saturday
San Francisco Giants left-hander Blake Snell set a career-high in strikeouts Saturday, whiffing 15 Colorado Rockies in six innings in a no-decision. The Giants won the game 4-1. Snell surrendered two hits and two walks and gave up zero runs. After a tough start to the year, Snell has a 3.00 ERA, a 1.06 WHIP, and 49 strikeouts in 36 innings. Snell is one of the more interesting names in the rumor mill as we near the trade deadline. Should he remain with San Francisco, his next start will come next weekend in Cincinnati.

Fri Jul 2600:35Blake Snell Drawing Plenty Of Trade Interest
The San Francisco Giants are receiving plenty of interest in starting pitcher Blake Snell, who is coming off his third strong start in a row. His past three starts have all come after his latest trip to the IL, but it appears he is healthy now as he has looked more like his 2023 self recently. The lefty signed a two-year deal with the Giants before this season, but the contract includes an opt-out after this season, so the team could look to deal Snell now and possibly get a big return. The reigning Cy Young winner would be a welcome addition to any contender's rotation.

Sun Jul 1421:30Blake Snell Excellent On Sunday
San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Blake Snell was nearly unhittable during Sunday's start against the Minnesota Twins. The southpaw allowed one hit over seven scoreless innings while striking out eight batters. This is now back-to-back strong outings from Snell after a horrible start to the season. Hopefully that short stint on the injured list got the left hander back on track. Snell has allowed two hits over 12 scoreless innings since returning to the starting rotation.

Wed Jul 1012:23Blake Snell Looks Sharp In First Start Off The Injured List
In his return from the 15-day injured list on Tuesday night against the visiting Toronto Blue Jays, San Francisco Giants left-hander Blake Snell looked the best he's looked all year in what has been a rough season after winning the National League Cy Young in 2023. Snell threw five shutout innings while allowing just one hit, walking three and striking out three in a no-decision. The strong outing lowered the 31-year-old southpaw's ERA to 7.85 on the year and his WHIP to 1.74. Given that this was his first major-league start in over a month, fantasy managers shouldn't have been surprised that he threw only 73 pitches. Snell will have a more difficult matchup this weekend against the Minnesota Twins before next week's All-Star break, but fantasy managers will be hoping he can build on Tuesday's fine start and gain some momentum heading into the second half.

Tue Jul 918:14Blake Snell Activated, Starting On Tuesday
San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Blake Snell (groin) has been activated from the 15-day injured list on Tuesday. The southpaw will take the mound versus the Toronto Blue Jays after missing over a month due to a groin issue. The reigning NL CY Young award winner has been horrendous with the Giants this season.

Sun Jul 713:40Blake Snell Expected To Return On Tuesday
San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Blake Snell (groin) is expected to make his return to the mound on Tuesday against the Toronto Blue Jays. The southpaw has been sidelined for over a month due to a groin strain. Before that, Snell had an ugly 9.64 ERA through six starts with San Francisco. He looked fantastic with nine strikeouts over five scoreless innings during his latest rehab start. Hopefully, the time off has helped Snell get back on track.

Fri Jul 514:18Blake Snell Looks Dominant In Latest Rehab Start
San Francisco Giants left-hander Blake Snell (groin) was dominant in his latest minor-league rehab start on Wednesday for Triple-A Sacramento, tossing five shutout innings while giving up zero hits, walking one and striking out nine. This was Snell's third rehab start since going on the 15-day injured list on June 3 with another groin injury. The 31-year-old southpaw threw 46 of his 67 pitches for strikes on Wednesday and is expected to be able to return to the Giants' starting rotation next week before the All-Star break. Things couldn't have gone any worse for Snell coming off his National League Cy Young award in 2023, as he's gone 0-3 with a 9.51 ERA and 1.94 WHIP with 31 K's in 23 2/3 innings over only six starts in 2024 in his first year with the Gigantes. If Snell does come off the IL next week, he'll likely be facing the Toronto Blue Jays.

Mon Jun 2421:16Blake Snell To Make Another Rehab Start Friday
San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Blake Snell (groin) will throw a bullpen session on Tuesday and start for the Sacramento River Cats at Triple-A on Friday, manager Bob Melvin said ahead of Monday's series opener against the visiting Chicago Cubs. After Snell struggled in Sunday's minor-league rehab appearance in his recovery from a strained left groin, the Giants have quickly decided that he needs some more work on the farm before they re-insert the hurler back into their rotation. It rules out a return before the end of June for Snell, who fantasy managers are patiently waiting on to kick-start his season. Through six starts during his first year in San Francisco, the 31-year-old reigning National League Cy Young Award winner has a dismal 9.51 ERA, 1.94 WHIP, and 31:14 K:BB over 23 2/3 innings.

Mon Jun 2401:15Blake Snell Struggles In Rehab Outing
San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Blake Snell (groin) labored through his first rehab start on Sunday, tossing 1 innings while allowing two runs on three hits. He didn't strike out a batter and walked three. It wasn't the appearance that Snell or the Giants were looking for and shows that he's going to need at least one more rehab start before he can return to the big league team. It's been a bit of a disaster season for Snell, who signed with the Giants late and hasn't been able to find his midseason form. Injuries haven't helped his cause, but that doesn't excuse the abysmal 9.51 ERA and 1.94 WHIP Snell has this season. Fantasy managers who own Snell know that he can turn it on at any point and look like a Cy Young candidate, but he will need to do that soon to salvage this season.

Sat Jun 2213:58Blake Snell Starting Rehab Assignment On Sunday
San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Blake Snell (groin) will begin a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday, June 23. Snell was placed on the 15-day injured list on June 5 with a left groin strain. However, he has not faced any setbacks and is now ready to begin the final step of his recovery process. The reigning NL Cy Young Award winner has had a rough start to the season after battling numerous injuries. Currently, he sits with a poor 9.51 ERA, 1.94 WHIP, and a 14:31 BB:K ratio. Despite the inflated ratios, he still holds an above-average 26.1 % K rate and 31.4% whiff rate, which is a good sign moving forward. Snell should remain rostered in all formats and could be a solid piece to your rotation in the second half of the summer.

Mon Jun 318:24Blake Snell Officially Placed On Injured List
San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Blake Snell (groin) has been placed on the 15-day injured list on Monday. As expected, Snell will miss time after suffering a groin injury during Sunday's start versus the New York Yankees. In a corresponding move, the Giants have activated outfielder Michael Conforto (hamstring) from the injured list. The Giants have not made a move for another starting pitcher yet. That means, Mason Black could get a shot in the starting rotation. Hopefully it'll be a minimal stint on the injured list for Snell who was struggling to the tune of a 9.51 ERA through six starts before the injury.

Sun Jun 222:06Blake Snell Expected To Land On 15-Day Injured List
The San Francisco Giants are expected to place 2023 National League Cy Young Award winner Blake Snell (groin) on the injured list with a left-groin injury that he suffered during his start on Sunday against the New York Yankees. He allowed three earned runs on five hits, striking out seven and walking three in 4 2/3 innings in the loss. It is the second time Snell has been on the IL this season, having previously missed 25 games with a left-groin strain. The talented left-hander will undergo an MRI exam on Monday, at which point we should have a better idea of how much time Snell might miss this time around. He is 0-3 with a 9.51 ERA in 23 2/3 innings this season, one that has left fantasy managers in a state of frustration with Snell.

Sun Jun 219:17Blake Snell Exits Early On Sunday

Snell received a visit from manager Bob Melvin and training staff before being removed in the fifth inning. He ended his day giving up three runs on five hits and striking out seven batters. The hope is that this issue won't require Snell to be placed on the injured list. Fantasy managers should receive another update on his status later on.

Sun May 2613:50Blake Snell Reinstated From Paternity List, Starting Monday
San Francisco Giants starter Blake Snell (personal) was reinstated from the paternity list on Sunday afternoon. The 31-year-old is reportedly still awaiting the birth of his baby but will return to the team to start Monday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. It is possible that he goes back on the paternity list after the game. Snell has endured a rocky start to his first season with the Giants as he's posted an 0-3 record to go along with a bloated 11.40 ERA, 2.07 WHIP and 17:9 K:BB through four starts. It is tough to trust last year's Cy Young winner right now, especially against a powerful Phillies offense.
