Still dealing with blister issue Sanchez (biceps) is still dealing with a bister issue as he continues his rehab assignment with Triple-A Sacramento, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Sanchez has been on a rehab assignment with Sacramento since June 7 but has had to pause the stint twice because of blisters. He returned to the mound Friday, allowing one run in two innings of work, but it sounds like he was once again troubled by a blister. The right-hander appeared to be on track for an early July activation, but that could be pushed back if the blister problems continue to persist.

Impact Sanchez has been on the injured list since early May with biceps tightness. He began a rehab assignment June 7, but blister issues have paused the right-hander's rehab stint twice. He appears to have gotten past the latest blister problem, so he should remain on track for an early July activation.

Impact The blister previously prevented Sanchez from making a rehab start a week earlier, and it may have reopened while he was playing catch a few days ago. The Giants aren't viewing the setback as a significant one for Sanchez, who is simultaneously working back from right biceps tightness. That being said, finger issues aren't a new concern for Sanchez, who was limited to just 36 innings with the Blue Jays in 2017 on account of recurring blisters.

Moves to 60-day IL The Giants transferred Sanchez (biceps) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Sunday.
Impact After making his third rehab start at Triple-A Sacramento on Thursday, Sanchez looked to be close to rejoining the big club, but the Giants' decision to move him to the 60-day IL will delay his potential activation until early July. The Giants haven't indicated that Sanchez suffered a setback in his outing Thursday, even though he lasted just 1.1 innings while giving up four runs on four hits and three walks in the rehab start. He'll get approximately two more weeks to iron out the kinks at Triple-A before the Giants consider bringing him back.

Dealing with blister Sanchez (biceps) exited his rehab start Thursday with a blister, Mark W. Sanchez of KNBR 680 San Francisco reports.

Exits with trainer Sanchez (biceps) exited his rehab start at Triple-A Sacramento with a trainer Thursday, Mark W. Sanchez of KNBR 680 San Francisco reports.
Impact Sanchez exited the game after completing 1.1 innings and throwing 50 pitches. It's not clear how deep into the game he was slated to throw, but it was a premature exit after he called for a trainer who went on to examine his hand. It's unclear how long the setback will push back Sanchez's timetable to return, though the preliminary indications are that this was not an aggravation of his original injury.
