After being in on RHP Jordan Montgomery for most of the offseason (which remains true), the Yankees are now also "considering" the other top free agent starting pitcher on the market in LHP Blake Snell, per Jon Heyman of the NY Post.
The reigning NL Cy Young award winner with the San Diego Padres, Snell could potentially link up with Gerrit Cole, the Cy Young winner in the AL in 2023, and form a powerful 1-2 punch at the top of New York’s rotation.
On whether Snell, a Seattle native, has a preference for the West Coast or if the Yankees have a chance to land him, his agent Scott Boras said:
“Snell has won a Cy Young both on the East and the West Coast, and in both leagues. He is open to all clubs and is seeking winning and competitive environments.”
