[NOWnews今日新聞] Is Blake Snell okay? Blake Snell, a Cy Young player from the MLB San Francisco Giants, joined the Giants shortly before the start of the season for 2 years and 62 million U.S. dollars (approximately NT$2.02 billion), but it seems that the adjustment is not in place.His performance has been poor so far, with an ERA of 11.57. Today (25th) Snell was placed on the 15-day injured list due to a strained left adductor muscle.

“Obviously, I’m disappointed. I felt really good pitching this week, even in the bullpen, and I was thinking to myself, I feel really good. I did some stuff that I thought meant a lot to me. Adjusting, having this kind of injury now, is quite frustrating, I have to change my focus, get healthy quickly and get back on the court.” Blake Snell said the team lost 2:8 today (25th). Said after Metropolis.
When Blake Snell played for the Padres last season, he performed very well, scoring 14 wins and 9 losses with an ERA of only 2.25, which also allowed him to win the second Cy Young Award of his career. However, Snell, who wanted a contract worth more than US$200 million in the off-season, ended up like other big-name players under agent “Vampire” Scott Boras. He only got a two-year short-term contract worth US$62 million, and at the same time, he will be expiring at the end of this season. There is an escape clause attached.
However, after joining the Giants this season, Blake Snell’s current performance can be said to be ridiculous. He has only pitched 11.2 innings in 3 starts this season, allowing at least 3 points in each game, and has pitched less than 5 innings, with an ERA. As high as 11.57, he also swallowed his 3-game losing streak at the beginning of the season. Among Blake Snell’s three starts, Taiwanese player Kai-Wei Deng also pitched subsequently. Deng Kai-Wei was also demoted to the minor league 3A earlier, hoping to adjust to the best condition and strive to return to the major league stage again.
