The Los Angeles Dodgers have been one of the best teams in Major League Baseball as they have won the National League West title in 11 of the last 12 seasons.
Coming off their eighth World Series title in franchise history, the Dodgers continued to add talent as they signed free agent starter Blake Snell from the San Francisco Giants.
Not only has Blake Snell had a stellar career that includes two Cy Young Awards, but he’s winning off the field as well as making a personal statement.
Snell announced that he and his girlfriend Haley are engaged.
Congratulations to Blake Snell and his fiancee Hailey on their engagement 💍!

Snell is a nine-year MLB veteran and will now join the World Series Champion Dodgers in 2025 as he seeks his third Cy Young Award of his career.
Since entering the league with the Tampa Bay Rays in 2016, Snell holds the all-time record for strikeouts per nine innings with 11.2.
Snell started 20 games for the Giants in 2024, posting a 5-3 record with a 3.12 ERA and 145 strikeouts in 104.0 innings.
Snell can be seen in a social media photo taking aim at his girlfriend, Haley, as he begins his new journey with the Dodgers in 2025.
The Dodgers have won two World Series titles in the last five seasons, and the addition of Snell should give them a boost as they try to win back-to-back titles for the first time in franchise history.
Snell will play for his fourth career team after signing a five-year, $182 million contract with the Dodgers.
