Gary Sánchez Fantasy

New York Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez (back, flu) is feeling better and is scheduled to see a doctor on Friday for an update. Sanchez was diagnosed with the flu on Tuesday but is also dealing with a sore back which the Yankees have not provided a recent update on. The Yankees do not consider Sanchezs back issue to be serious, but fantasy owners should keep an eye on Sanchezs health whenever he starts playing again. With Opening Day pushed back, fantasy owners should expect Sanchez to be ready for the start of the season.

New York Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez (back) was diagnosed with the flu after being held out of batting practice on Tuesday. There had been some speculation that Sanchez would undergo testing for coronavirus, so this is a relatively positive outcome for Sanchez. It's unclear how long Sanchez will be sidelined with the flu, but the extra time off should help his sore back heal. Barring any setbacks, Sanchez appears to be on track for Opening Day and fantasy owners should monitor his health over the next few days.

New York Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez (back) had been scheduled to take batting practice on Tuesday but was held out with a fever. The Yankees are not aware if Sanchez is being tested for coronavirus, and its unclear what would happen if Sanchez has the virus. The Ivy League canceled their mens basketball tournament due to coronavirus, and the MLB hasnt ruled out canceling games as well. Between his back and his fever, Sanchez should be expected to miss his scheduled spring debut on Friday and at this point may very well miss Opening Day. Fantasy owners should be very cautious in drafting Sanchez without additional information and keep a close eye on his health over the next few days.
