Blake Snell, a two-time Cy Young Award winner, has agreed to sign with the World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers on a five-year deal that is reportedly worth $182 million.

The left-handed pitcher announced the agreement via Instagram on Tuesday night, and terms of the contract were reported by multiple media outlets. The deal is pending a physical, according to ESPN.

Snell will join a Dodgers team that beat the New York Yankees in five games to win the World Series back in October.

On Nov. 1, Snell opted out of the second year of his contract with the Giants. Snell, 31, had signed a two-year deal with San Francisco that would have paid him $38.5 million in 2025.

After a rough start to the 2024 season that included two trips to the injured list, Snell returned in July and impressed down the stretch. He struck out 114 batters on his way to a 1.23 ERA over his final 14 starts of the year, which included his first career no-hitter on Aug. 2 against the Cincinnati Reds.

Snell won his first Cy Young Award with the Tampa Bay Rays in 2018 and added another with the San Diego Padres in 2023.

A first-round draft pick by the Rays in 2011, Snell has a 76-58 career record with a 3.19 ERA in 211 starts with the Rays (2016-20), Padres (2021-23) and Giants (2024).
