I'm not worried about that unless he has a setback. Innings wise he is good to go and this will actually help keep him go later in the season. Link to post Share on other sites
Baur10 2,235 Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Eh hindsight is 20/20 and all that but this is why he was a "sell" in redrafts at the deadline IMO. They're a team with nothing to play for and a young controllable Ace coming off injury. I like him about as much as any pitcher out there talent wise but if you need help for the final few weeks or playoffs you're better off with a great vet than an elite newbie.

GC Tacos 151 Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Do you think the Rays are trying to suppress Snell’s stats in hopes of decreasing his value for arbitration after next year? For a cheap franchise, this could be a brilliant move. The worst thing that could happen would be for Snell to accidentally win AL Cy Young. Link to post Share on other sites

Interesting thought - but do you honestly think he has or had a shot at beating out Sale? Link to post Share on other sites

What are they going to do? Let him throw 70 pitches a game for a year? Think of the optics for that. A cy young award winner might actually get a few people out to the games. Like someone said though,Sale would have to pitch backwards for the rest of the year to not win. Link to post Share on other sites
Picard56 1,521 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 101 pitches after 6 innings, safe to say his day is done. 11 k, a QS and in line for the win. As Ice Cube would say, today was a good day. Link to post Share on other sites

GC Tacos 151 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 If Snell keeps pitching like this and makes 7 or 8 IP then he should be AL CY Young. Especially with Sale on the DL for awhile. Link to post Share on other sites

Snell was very impressive again, but remember this was a practice game against what really is an AAA lineup. But last time out he sliced up the Yankees so it doesn't seem to matter with him.

guzman24 21 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Where do you guys see Snell being drafted next year? I have him in a QS keeper league. I reached a couple of rounds hoping he'd take a step, but this has been ridiculous. Link to post Share on other sites

Jyeatbvg 917 Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 So...when does this guy start getting the love he deserves? Top 10 SP, maybe even in the 7-9 range. Link to post Share on other sites

Awful team context though. Bullpen should cost him runs,offense should cost him wins. The breakout appears real,but itll be tough to get him at a profit next year. Link to post Share on other sites

I take that back, he should be the AL CY Young favorite now. Who knows when Sale is coming back? Who tops him in NL? deGrom, Nola, and Scherzer that’s it. He’s definitely top 5 this year, probably 4. If fact, he and Nola have equivalent stats. Nola pitches in the NL, so he has more K’s and a better WHIP. If not for the Yankees, Snell would have a deGrom type ERA Link to post Share on other sites

Im wondering if he goes ahead of kershaw next year in adp. I imagine theyll be close. Link to post Share on other sites
kwolf68 357 Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Snell is amazing. He did not have his good stuff to start yesterday, but zeroed in his command and blew away a good Cleveland lineup the rest of the way. He is now just like any other super star pitcher (max, deg, sale), if you have a chance to get him, you better do it. Link to post Share on other sites
