According To ESPN’s, New York Yankees Has Agreed The Contract With…

Until Blake Snell signs somewhere else, the Yankees cannot be completely ruled out as a potential suitor.

However, oxygen may need to be kept on hand for those waiting for the Yankees to sign the current NL Cy Young winner.

It’s thought that the Yankees are not considering an offer for Snell, as the first full-squad practice is scheduled for Tuesday.

Before they changed course and signed Marcus Stroman to complete their rotation, they had made a contract offer earlier in the offseason.

It’s still feasible that the Yankees may pounce to sign Snell and strengthen their rotation if his market value drops.

However, given where the team stands with the estimated luxury-tax payroll as currently built (about $306.7 million, according Cot’s Contracts), it would be an expensive proposition right now.
