Sixto Sanchez optioned to Triple-A

Sixto Sanchez has been optioned to Triple-A along with Xavier Edwards and George Soriano.

Fantasy Impact

Sanchez is still making his way back from shoulder surgery and will not be ready for the start of the season. If all goes well, he could find himself in the Marlins rotation at some point this season, but there are still many question marks for the 24-year-old who hasn't pitched since 2020.

Sixto Sanchez (shoulder) throwing bullpen sessions

Miami Marlins pitcher Sixto Sanchez says he has progressed to throwing bullpen sessions following shoulder surgery.

Fantasy Impact

Sanchez met with the media Friday and noted he has progressed to throwing bullpens and is down a whopping 46 pounds. While not fully cleared, he hopes to pitch in spring games and land a spot on the Opening Day roster. The 24-year-old burst onto the scene in the shortened 2020 season, tossing a 3.46 ERA in seven regular-season starts before making a pair of postseason starts. The 24-year-old hasn't pitched at any level since that 2020 campaign.

Sixto Sanchez to have shoulder surgery

Sixto Sanchez will undergo an arthroscopic bursectomy on his right shoulder on October 5.

Fantasy Impact

Sanchez is expected to be ready for spring training, but the shoulder surgery is another step backward for the former top prospect. Sanchez has not pitched since 2020 due to constant injuries.

Sixto Sanchez set to throw simulated game

Sixto Sanchez is scheduled to throw a two inning simulated game on Saturday in Jupiter.

Fantasy Impact

Sanchez has not pitched in a game for the Marlins since 2020. Saturday’s sim game will be a very important step in his recovery for a shoulder injury. Fantasy managers should keep an eye out on a report after the sim game.

Sixto Sanchez set to face live hitters next week

Sixto Sanchez is set to face live hitters next week for the first time since March 2021. The Marlins have stated that he is not currently having any issues with his shoulder, and will still need some time to work off some rust.

Fantasy Impact

Sanchez has not pitched in a major league game since 2020 as he continues to work his way back from a shoulder injury. With Sanchez set to face live hitters for the first time in his recovery, it will be important that he just ends that session healthy. Fantasy managers in redraft leagues should not focus on Sanchez, but he is a definite hold in dynasty.
