Snell addressed a handful of different topics at Fan Fest, including his availability at the start of the 2026 season. He shared with the media that the “plan” is to be ready for Opening Day.
“I played catch, I threw. It feels good,” Snell said. “But I’m just going to take my time. Last year I was in a hurry. I wanted to throw so badly. But I’m going to take my time. The goal is to be ready on opening day, but I’m going to take my time. I’ll know more once I’m ready. [at Spring Training]throwing bullpens, throwing plays.
The two-time Cy Young winner pitched to an incredible 2.35 ERA in 2025, but was limited to just 11 starts due to left shoulder inflammation that kept him out for most of the season. Still, Snell played a pivotal role for the Dodgers in their quest for back-to-back titles.
He will do the same for Los Angeles in the 2026 season as they look to become the first National League team to complete a three-peat.
