Aaron Sanchez News
Starting pitcher Aaron Sanchez was released by the San Francisco Giants on Friday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. The Giants designated Sanchez for assignment on Sunday, and he went unclaimed on waivers. Sanchez was having his best year since winning the ERA title in 2016, pitching to a 3.06 ERA with 26 strikeouts, 15 walks, and just two home runs allowed in 35.1 innings pitched. If Sanchez can latch on to another team with an open rotation spot, he can be a sneaky waiver wire pick-up in deep leagues.
San Francisco Giants pitcher Aaron Sanchez was designated for assignment on Sunday as part of a series of roster moves made by the club. Sanchez previously spent time on the injured list this season due to right bicep tightness. He's made nine appearances, including seven starts, for the Giants this season. Sanchez pitched to a 3.06 ERA, a 4.04 FIP, 26 strikeouts, and 15 walks in 35.1 innings. If the 29-year-old lands with another Major League team and has the chance to start, he could be worth a look for fantasy managers in deeper leagues searching for rotation help.
San Francisco Giants pitcher Aaron Sanchez pitched three scoreless innings out of the bullpen in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Diamondbacks. Sanchez allowed a hit and four walks with a strikeout. It was the 29-year-old's second appearance since returning from the injured list with right biceps tightness. Sanchez started the season in the Giants' rotation and looked good, but there is currently no spot available for him. He will still be able to help the Giants, but this decreases his fantasy value and is unfortunate, as he has a stellar 2.97 ERA through his 33 1/3 IP this season.
