Sixto Sanchez Headed To The 15-Day Injured List
6 months agoMiami Marlins starting pitcher Sixto Sanchez (shoulder) was placed on the 15-day injured list on Sunday with right shoulder inflammation. While the extent of the injury is unknown, the 25-year-old should be expected to remain sidelined for an extended period of time. Sanchez returned to the major leagues earlier this season after a four-year absence and struggled with a 6.06 ERA, 1.60 WHIP, and 14:17 BB:K ratio. This injury leaves a hole in the Marlins rotation that could be filled by relief pitcher A.J. Puk or even prospect Max Meyer, who opened the season on the major league roster. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to who slides in as the fifth-man in the rotation as they could be worth adding in deeper leagues.
