It’s been a quiet off-season so far, but the stove threatens to erupt in flames if one is to believe Mark Feinsand’s report on MLB.com that the Rays are open to trading Blake Snell. Further increasing the potential heat here in our cold little faraway corner, per Feinsand’s report, two teams interested in the former Cy Young winner are the Angels and our very own Mariners. Snell, a Seattle-area native, would probably love to come home to the team he rooted for while growing up in Shoreline. A UW commit before he was drafted by the Rays in 2011, Snell is still a vocal supporter of UW athletics and is prone to live-tweeting Husky games on his Twitter account.
