Blake Snell to the San Francisco Giants is official. Snell passed his physical and the deal was announced by the SF Giants on Tuesday night, capping a monster offseason for the orange and black. How exactly were the Giants able to land Snell to such a team-friendly deal? What made the SF Giants' Snell's choice in the end?
And how does the Giants' signing of Blake Snell impact the NL West? Just a few weeks ago, the Locked On hosts from the NL West got together and Millard Thomas of Locked On D-backs said the Giants could possibly be a last-place team. Now, Millard questions whether the Giants may actually be the second-best team in the division.
Ben from Locked On Giants and Millard from Locked On D-backs compare Blake Snell to other pitchers in the NL West, including Logan Webb, Zac Gallen, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, and many others. How does Snell compare? Coming off a Cy Young award, is the new Giants ace the best pitcher in the division? Listen to find out.
