Sixto Sanchez Throws A Bullpen Session
5 months agoMiami Marlins right-hander Sixto Sanchez (shoulder) threw a 26-pitch bullpen session in Philadelphia last Saturday. It was the second time that Sanchez has thrown off a mound since landing on the 60-day injured list but he won't be eligible to rejoin the Marlins' pitching staff until August. The 25-year-old Dominican hurler has a long history with shoulder injuries, so the Fish are going to take their time bringing him back. Sanchez has been used in a swing role for Miami in 2024 in his return to the big leagues, as half of his 14 appearances have come in a starting role. He hasn't been very effective, though, going 0-3 with a 6.06 ERA (4.73 FIP) and 1.59 WHIP with 17 strikeouts and 14 walks in 35 2/3 frames. Sanchez is going to need to show better command of his arsenal to have any shot for fantasy relevance in the second half of the season.
