The most important contract wrinkle involves left-hander Blake Snell, whom industry sources say is drawing significant trade interest after returning to his 2023 NL Cy Young Award-winning form over his past three starts, Baggarly wrote.
All indications are that the Giants will listen to offers for Snell, who might be the most scouted player in the big leagues when he pitches the front end of a scheduled home doubleheader Saturday against the Colorado Rockies, But if the Giants are motivated to move him, it won't be for financial reasons.
It'd be to recoup the prospect talent they sacrificed when they surrendered a third-round draft pick to sign him. And it'd be because they surmise there's a decent chance that he'd opt out after the season, anyway.
