Blake Snell Sharp in Second Rehab Start
Blake Snell (shoulder) took another step toward his eventual return to the Majors on Tuesday night. Snell completed his second rehab start on Tuesday, this time with the Dodgers' Arizona Complex League affiliate, tossing three innings, allowing one earned run, and racking up seven strikeouts. He appeared sharp in this outing, and now, with two rehab starts under his belt, he has logged five innings, striking out 11 and allowing only one run. Most importantly, zero walks. The Dodgers will likely aim to ramp him up to about 70-75 pitches before he returns to their starting rotation, but these are all positive signs for fantasy managers who have been stashing Snell on their IL. Snell has been on the shelf since April 3, and once he returns, Snell is the kind of player who can be a league-winner down the stretch. In his 10-year MLB career, he owns an impressive 3.18 ERA and a fantastic 11.17 K/9.
