Rays' Cy Young winner opens against Verlander, Astros | |
The reigning American League Cy Young Award winner faces the runner-up when the Tampa Bay Rays host the Houston Astros on Opening Day Thursday at 4 p.m. ET. Rays lefthander Blake Snell (21-5, 1.89 ERA in 2018) begins the defense of his Cy Young Award against the Astros' ace Verlander (16-9, 2.52), who finished second in last year's voting. Both pitchers were rewarded with contract extensions this spring, with Snell signing a five-year, $50 million extension through 2023 and Verlander inking a two-year deal that will reportedly pay him $66 million over the 2020-21 campaigns.
