The Los Angeles Dodgers are considering the possibility of signing starting pitcher Blake Snell despite the likelihood being low. The team has been linked with Snell before and with their aggressive approach to bolstering talent this offseason, they remain open to adding more pitching depth. Snell has expressed interest in a short-term deal with opt-outs aligning with the Dodgers’ potential preferences.

He’s reportedly seeking a contract of at least two years for $60 million including an opt-out after the 2024 season. While the Houston Astros have hesitated at Snell’s asking price, the Dodgers could benefit from his addition to their already formidable rotation especially considering the potential for injuries.

Snell could provide another top-tier starter for the Dodgers enhancing their chances of winning a World Series.
