Aaron Sanchez To Throw For Teams Friday

Free-agent right-hander Aaron Sanchez is scheduled to throw a bullpen session for interested teams on Friday in Florida. A 2016 MLB All-Star, Sanchez hasn't appeared in the big leagues since the 2022 season when he worked to a 6.60 ERA across 15 outings (10 starts) between the Washington Nationals and Minnesota Twins. The 31-year-old won the ERA title in his All-Star 2016 season in which he worked to a 3.00 ERA across 30 starts while going a pristine 15-2 with the Blue Jays that season. He finished seventh in AL Cy Young voting that year, as well. He seemed to be back on track with a 3.06 ERA in a seven-start, nine-outing sample with the 2021 Giants before struggling in 2022. He tossed a 5.30 ERA across 18 appearances (16 starts) with Triple-A St. Paul in the Twins organization in 2023.

Aaron Sanchez Signs With Diamondbacks

Free-agent starting pitcher Aaron Sanchez has agreed on a minor-league contract with the Arizona Diamondbacks. Sanchez was released by the Minnesota Twins a few weeks ago. He made eight appearances (three starts) with the Twins last season, but didn't pitch too well. The 31-year-old hasn't pitched in the MLB yet this season and is expected to head to Triple-A Reno. This appears to be a depth move, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect much from Sanchez.

Twins Re-Sign Aaron Sanchez

The Minnesota Twins re-signed right-hander Aaron Sanchez to a minor-league deal. Along with the Twins, Sanchez also pitched for the Washington Nationals last year. When all was said and done, he had a career-worst 6.60 ERA (4.48 FIP), 1.55 WHIP and weak 15.5 percent strikeout rate in 60 innings pitched over 15 appearances (10 starts). Sanchez was an All-Star with the Toronto Blue Jays in 2016 and had a much more promising fantasy outlook earlier in his career, but lingering injuries (mostly finger/hand) derailed his career. The 30-year-old will be looking to impress Minnesota's coaching staff in spring training to see if he can win a role on the pitching staff entering the 2023 season. Sanchez can be ignored in most fantasy formats.

Aaron Sanchez Designated For Assignment On Saturday

The Washington Nationals designated pitcher Aaron Sanchez for assignment on Saturday. Washington will keep reliever Andrs Machado on the roster while the move to designate Sanchez opens up a spot in the team's starting five until Stephen Strasburg (neck) returns. Sanchez has struggled mightily this season, posting an 8.33 ERA, 1.76 WHIP, and 16 strikeouts over 31 1/3 innings. The 29-year-old will report to Triple-A Rochester or test free agency if the right-hander goes unclaimed. Fantasy managers can leave Sanchez on the waiver wire.

Aaron Sanchez To Start On Saturday

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Aaron Sanchez will take the mound for Saturday's game against the San Francisco Giants. The 29-year-old will be making his team debut after pitching well in the minors. Sanchez posted a 3.60 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 10/5 K/BB ratio across 15 innings in Triple-A. Honestly, it's tough to trust Sanchez for this matchup. He has experienced success in the past, but the Giants' bats have been hot lately. Fantasy managers can use Sanchez at their own risk.

Nationals To Select Aaron Sanchez, Could Start Saturday

The Washington Nationals will be selecting the contract of veteran pitcher Aaron Sanchez. The 29-year-old will be joining the team prior to Saturday's game against his former team, the San Francisco Giants. The Nationals have yet to name a starter for Saturday's contest. Sanchez could be line for the start or he could work a long relief role. The right-hander signed a minor league deal with the Nationals this offseason. He's made three starts at Triple-A this year and he has pitched to a 3.60 ERA and a 1.48 WHIP while averaging 6.0 K/9.

Nationals Sign Aaron Sanchez To Minor-League Deal

The Washington Nationals signed free-agent pitcher Aaron Sanchez to a minor-league deal with an invite to spring training on Sunday. If the right-hander makes the big leagues, he could earn up to $4 million in performance bonuses. The 29-year-old was solid for the Giants in 2021, posting a 3.06 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and a 26:15 K:BB over 35 1/3 innings before being released by the team in mid-August. Sanchez is mainly an option in deeper leagues if he cracks Washington's starting rotation, which could happen with Joe Ross (elbow) and Stephen Strasburg (shoulder) recovering from injuries.

Aaron Sanchez Released

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.

Aaron Sanchez Designated For Assignment

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.

Aaron Sanchez Has Scoreless Relief Outing Tuesday

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.
