Fantasy Impact:

Sanchez was traded to Houston from Miami prior to last year's trade deadline and he struggled in 48 games with the Astros. He slashed just .199/.269/.342 in 160 plate appearances with Houston. He is a career .239 hitter with 73 home runs in parts of six big league seasons. Sanchez is penciled in to be Houston's everyday right fielder in 2026.
