At long last, Blake Snell is back. Almost. On Sunday morning, shortly before completing a sweep against the Colorado Rockies, the San Francisco Giants announced that Snell will return to the rotation on Wednesday. The Giants have an off day on Monday, before beginning a road series on Tuesday against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Reigning NL Cy Young runner-up Logan Webb will take the bump for that series opener, and reigning NL Cy Young winner Snell will slide into the second game of the series.
Snell’s Giants tenure got off to a rocky start.
