Cristopher Sanchez gave up two runs on five hits and a walk while racking up 10 strikeouts across seven innings in Friday's 2-0 loss to the Rays.
Fantasy Impact
Sanchez wrapped up his regular season with an ace-level performance. Unfortunately for the All-Star lefty, the Phillies' bats remained ice cold for the third straight game. Sanchez has had an excellent season overall for the Phillies. He's tied atop the majors with 18 wins, as well as being second in innings pitched (207) and fifth in strikeouts (231).
Cristopher Sanchez gave up two runs on six hits and no walks while striking out six over 6 1/3 innings in Sunday's 7-2 win against the Mets.
Fantasy Impact
Sanchez needed a rebound effort following a pair of subpar performances. The All-Star lefty came up with one Sunday afternoon, logging his MLB-leading 18th win of the season. Sanchez now sports a 2.93 ERA, 1.22 WHIP, and 221 strikeouts through 32 starts. He's also just the second pitcher in the league to reach 200 innings this season.
Cristopher Sanchez was tagged for five runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out five across 6 1/3 innings in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Nationals.
Fantasy Impact
Two of the runs charged to Sanchez in Tuesday's loss scored after he exited in the seventh inning. Still, the lefty was not in top form, and it seems that he has lost some of his steam here in the stretch run. Over his last three starts, Sanchez has posted a 6.87 ERA and 1.53 WHIP with 15 strikeouts across 18 1/3 innings. He's in line to return to the mound Sunday against the Mets.
Cristopher Sanchez allowed six runs on 10 hits and no walks while striking out three across six innings in Wednesday's 11-7 win over the Astros.
Fantasy Impact
Sanchez was hit hard by the Astros on Wednesday, as the Phillies were actually trailing 6-5 going into the bottom of the sixth inning. However, a six-run frame for Philly broke the contest open, and Sanchez ultimately picked up his NL-leading 17th victory of the season. The All-Star lefty has just five losses through 30 starts, sporting a 2.79 ERA with 210 strikeouts across 187 1/3 innings. All three of those marks place inside the Top 10 in the bigs.
