Report: LHP Blake Snell has offer from Yankees

[February 20, 2024]  Two-time Cy Young Award winner Blake Snell has an offer on the table from the New York Yankees, MLB Network reported Monday. 

The Los Angeles Angels and San Francisco Giants remain in the running to sign the free agent left-hander, per the report.

Terms of the Yankees' offer were not included in the report. Snell, 31, made $16 million last season with San Diego in the final campaign of a five-year, $50 million deal he signed with Tampa Bay in March 2019.

Snell finished 14-9 with a 2.25 ERA and 234 strikeouts in 32 starts for the Padres in 2023, pairing a National League Cy Young to the American League trophy he collected with the Rays in 2018.

Snell is 71-55 with a 3.20 ERA in 191 games (all starts) with the Rays (2016-20) and Padres. He has struck out 1,223 batters and walked 451 in 992 2/3 innings.
