Fantasy Impact:
Yikes. Sanchez was ultimately benched in the Yankees' ALDS loss to the Rays, ceding starts behind the plate to Kyle Higashioka. Sanchez had a dreadful year at the plate in 2020, batting .147 with a poor .618 OPS. The 27-year-old has monstrous fantasy upside at a position that lacks offensive firepower, but his role is now in question entering the offseason.
