The San Francisco Giants will face a decision on Blake Snell this offseason.
have missed the playoffs for the third year in a row after an 80-82 regular season saw them finish nine games out of the Wild Card and fourth place in the NL West for the second season in a row.
As the team gets set to undergo big changes this offseason, they will do so under a new guiding hand. The Giants relieved Farhan Zaidi of his duties as president of baseball operations after the team failed to make the playoffs in five of Zaidi's six seasons at the helm. Replacing Zaidi is franchise legend Buster Posey, and the 7x All-Star catcher turned executive will have a big decision to make during his first winter in charge.
Snow would go on to say that he did not like the fact that Snell didn't pitch in what was supposed to be his final start of the season despite the fact that he is healthy with both the Giants and the "I had a problem with him on Saturday not taking the ball, and I get it, he doesn’t want to get injured," Snow said. “You’re not going to get injured. Go throw. Go show the fans and appreciate the fans and throw three or four innings, and then get out of the game.”
After the big season Snell put up, there are certainly a number of teams who would be willing to pony up the cash for the 2x Cy Young winner. But with Snell set to enter his age-32 season, Snow thinks Posey should pass and spend the money elsewhere.
