Report: Padres not expected to bring back Blake Snell

USA Today’s Bob Nightengale is reporting that the San Diego Padres are not expected to re-sign Blake Snell, who will be a free agent at the end of the season.

Would you give $200 million to Blake Snell?

Considering how much money has already been committed to Yu Darvish ($78 million for five more years) and Joe Musgrove ($80 million for four more years) in the rotation, San Diego shouldn’t be expected to re-sign Snell, especially when he’s going to be the most coveted free agent starter available.
