As I discussed on today’s pregame show, the San Diego Padres have officially called up MacKenzie Gore to start Friday night’s game at home against the Atlanta Braves in place of Blake Snell, who was put on the 10-day IL to make room for the former #1 pitching prospect in baseball.
Snell likely will miss just one start due to his adductor strain since the team can retroactively push back the date of when they put him on the IL.
It’s official. Blake Snell is going on the IL.
