Blake Snell has opted out of his contract with the San Francisco Giants, becoming a free agent for the second consecutive offseason. The left-handed pitcher had a strong season, compiling a 3.12 ERA and 5-3 record with 145 strikeouts in 104 innings. Despite injuries limiting him to just 20 starts, Snell is hoping for a better market this offseason after failing to secure a lucrative long-term deal last year.
