For the umpteenth time, Blake Snell is almost certainly not signing with the New York Yankees.
And yet, the rumors just won’t die. On Tuesday, new star outfielder and Snell’s former Padres teammate Juan Soto threw his support behind the idea of the big lefty in pinstripes.
“I know if he’s coming over, he’s going to help the team big-time,” Soto said to the Post. It’s always great to have great talent on the team. I would never say no. So it’s a great fit for him, I think.”
Additionally, catcher Jose Trevino joined the Post’s own Jon Heyman and Joel Sherman on their podcast and added that he too thought Snell would be a good signing.
