MLB.com is keeping track of the latest news and rumors surrounding Blake Snell. The 2024 MLB Trade Deadline is July 30 at 6 p.m. ET.

July 28: With latest gem, Snell’s trade stock only rising
With a 52-55 record and just an 18% chance of making the postseason ( per FanGraphs’ playoff odds), the Giants are looking like a Trade Deadline seller, and an unlikely name on San Francisco’s roster has emerged as a popular trade candidate.

According to Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic ( subscription required), Snell has been drawing significant trade interest. MLB Network insider Jon Heyman reports that at least six teams have shown interest in Snell. That includes the Yankees, who were linked to Snell in free agency this past winter, and the Padres, Snell’s former team. The Cubs, who made the surprising move to trade for Isaac Paredes on Sunday, are also in the mix for Snell, per Heyman.

Less than three weeks ago, a Snell trade would have seemed highly unlikely. Although Snell is a two-time Cy Young Award winner, he had a 9.51 ERA over his first six starts this season and spent time on the injured list with a left adductor strain and a left groin strain. With the way he was performing, it was hard to see any team taking on his contract, which guarantees him $30 million in 2025 but also gives him the ability to opt out this offseason.

But since returning from the latter injury on July 9, Snell has been nearly unhittable. With his historic 15-strikeout performance on Saturday, the left-hander has posted a 0.75 ERA with 30 strikeouts over 24 innings.
