Angels 6, Mariners 3: Ian Snell pitching into sixth is all that mattered tonight

This bullpen situation is a lot more precarious than the team is letting on. And that's why panic must have started to set in when Ian Snell was working on his 30th pitch of the night, having notched just one out in the first inning.
But Snell got through that frame on 33 pitches...

After one uneventful inning, the Bucs quickly found themselves in yet another hole courtesy of Ian Snell. We had people cursing him out on Twitter, bashing him in the liveblog, and even the ever-positive Bucs’ announcers were upset at him. It was 5-0 Mets and probably could have...

Ian Snell was extremely effective in the two WBC games he pitched–one of which came against a very strong Venezuela lineup.
Today, back with the Pirates, he was a different pitcher. An ugly, 5-run second inning did Ian in as the Bucs lost today to the Reds. To make things worse...

After Neal Huntington took to the press this morning to say Snell wouldn't be demoted, Snell's been optioned to Triple-A Indy this afternoon and Virgil Vasquez has been called up to take his place in the rotation. My guess is that Snell's stuff is good enough to dominate...

Mariners trade Jeff Clement, Ronny Cedeno, Aaron Pribanic, Brett Lorin and Nathan Adcock to the Pirates for Ian Snell and Jack Wilson.

Ian Snell's start did not go anywhere near as planned tonight, as he made it through only four outs, but not before he allowed three runs on two hits and six walks. Afterward, he said the anxiety of playing for the first time at Safeco got to him.
