INJURIES

Inks minor-league deal with Toronto The Blue Jays signed Sanchez to a minor-league contract Friday, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports.
Impact It was initially reported Thursday that Sanchez -- who the Blue Jays designated for assignment Tuesday -- was outrighted to Triple-A Buffalo after clearing waivers, per Bannon. However, the 28-year-old catcher declined his assignment and elected free agency, but he has opted to stick around with the Blue Jays' organization and will report to Triple-A anyways. Sanchez is slashing .242/.311/.421 with five home runs and 15 RBI in 106 plate appearances for Buffalo this season.
JUNE 7 • ROTOWIRE
Staying in organization The Blue Jays outrighted Sanchez to Triple-A Buffalo on Thursday, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports.
Impact Sanchez cleared waivers after being removed from the 40-man roster and will remain in the organization as catching depth at Buffalo.

Blue Jays manager John Schneider says right-hander Max Scherzer threw 40 pitches of live batting practice Tuesday and could pitch in a minor league game this weekend

Loses spot on 40-man roster The Blue Jays designated Sanchez for assignment Tuesday, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Impact With Tyler Heineman back from the 7-day concussion injured list, the Jays no longer had a need for Sanchez. If Sanchez passes through waivers, he could stick around in the organization as catching depth.

Blue Jays place backup catcher Tyler Heineman on 7-day IL, call up Ali Sanchez

The Toronto Blue Jays had to shake up their roster before Sunday’s series finale against the Tampa Bay Rays
MAY 25
Contract selected, starting Sunday The Blue Jays selected Sanchez's contract from Triple-A Buffalo, and he'll start behind the plate and batting eighth Sunday against the Rays.
Impact The 28-year-old inked a minor-league deal with Toronto in December and will now join the big club with Tyler Heineman (concussion) going on the 7-day injured list. Sanchez had a .401 OPS in 96 plate appearances with the Marlins last season. He'll likely see infrequent playing time for the Blue Jays since Alejandro Kirk is locked is as the team's No. 1 backstop.

MAY 25 • ROTOWIRE
Inks minor-league deal with Toronto The Blue Jays signed Sanchez to a minor-league contract Monday that includes an invitation to spring training, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Impact Sanchez began the 2024 regular season with the Cubs in Triple-A, but he was dealt to the Marlins in mid-June in exchange for cash considerations. He ended up appearing in 31 games for Miami and posted a slash line of .167/.211/.190 with two stolen bases and four RBI across 96 plate appearances. Sanchez will have an opportunity in Toronto to compete for a major-league roster spot for the 2025 campaign.
DECEMBER 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
DFA'd by Miami The Marlins designated Sanchez for assignment Tuesday.
Impact Miami selected the 27-year-old's contract from Triple-A Jacksonville on June 21, and he primarily served as a backup catcher during his time with the big club. Jhonny Pereda is now poised to fill that role after Sanchez posted a .167/.211/.190 slash line in 31 games.
SEPTEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Taking seat Sunday Sanchez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.
Impact Sanchez had started in each of the Marlins' previous three matchups with right-handed starters, but he'll cede catching duties to Nick Fortes in the series finale while the Giants send right-hander Logan Webb to the hill. Sanchez and Fortes will likely continue to operate in a timeshare down the stretch, and the Marlins' catching picture could become even murkier with Miami using one of its two September call-ups on a third backstop in Jhonny Pereda.
SEPTEMBER 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Swipes two bags Thursday Sanchez went 3-for-5 with a double, a run scored, an RBI and two stolen bases in Thursday's win over the Rockies.
Impact The catcher came into the game with zero pilfers in 36 career big-league games and has never swiped more than two bags in a minor-league season, but Sanchez came home on a double steal with Connor Norby in the fourth inning before nabbing second base himself in the sixth. Sanchez has moved into a timeshare with Nick Fortes of late, starting four of the last eight games including the last two against right-handed pitchers, but Thursday's performance in Coors Field was his first multi-hit effort since July 12.

Derek Hill homers twice, Kyle Stowers drives in 4 as Marlins beat Rockies 12-8

Derek Hill had three hits and his second career two-homer game, Ali Sanchez had three hits and stole home, and the Miami Marlins beat the Colorado Rockies 12-8 to earn a split of t...
AUGUST 29, 2024
Getting second straight start Sanchez will start at catcher and bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the Reds.
Impact Sanchez will pick up a second consecutive start and could see the majority of the work behind the plate for the foreseeable future after Nick Fortes (quadricep) was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday. The Marlins recalled Jhonny Pereda from Triple-A Jacksonville to provide another option at catcher, but Pereda is a 28-year-old rookie who has just five MLB plate appearances to his name. Sanchez is slashing .180/.255/.180 over his 20 games with the Marlins this season and shouldn't be viewed as a viable fantasy option outside of NL-only leagues.
AUGUST 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Back on bench after three starts Sanchez is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Orioles.
Impact After top backstop Nick Fortes committed three throwing errors in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Mets, Sanchez caught the Marlins' next three games, going 0-for-7 with three strikeouts. Despite the rough performance over the weekend, Fortes still looks to be the Marlins' preferred catcher, and he'll be back behind the plate for Thursday's series finale with Baltimore while Sanchez sits.
JULY 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Back on bench Sunday Sanchez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.
Impact Sanchez will hit the bench for the second game in a row after he was behind the dish for Friday's 7-4 loss in the series opener, finishing with two hits and an RBI across four at-bats. He's slashing .250/.323/.250 in 32 plate appearances over 10 games since being called up from Triple-A Jacksonville on June 21 and has been operating as the No. 2 option at catcher behind Nick Fortes.
JULY 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Pirates add pitchers Jared Jones, Ryder Ryan, Hunter Stratton to active roster on opening day

The Pittsburgh Pirates called up right-handers Jared Jones, Ryder Ryan and Hunter Stratton from Tiple-A Indianapolis on Thursday as the team prepares to face the Miami Marlins on o...
MARCH 28, 2024
Clears waivers Sanchez was outrighted to Triple-A Reno on Jan. 5 after clearing waivers.
Impact Sanchez has spent time in three organizations this offseason after being moved off the 40-man rosters of the Tigers, Pirates and Diamondbacks, but he looks set to stick around in Arizona now that he's gone unclaimed off waivers upon being designated for assignment in late December. The 26-year-old will likely be invited to big-league spring training and could get the chance to compete for a spot on the Opening Day roster if Arizona decides to keep a third catcher behind Gabriel Moreno and Carson Kelly.
JANUARY 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
DFA'd by Arizona The Diamondbacks designated Sanchez for assignment Friday.
Impact After the acquisition of Lourdes Gurriel and Gabriel Moreno from Toronto in exchange for Daulton Varsho, Sanchez ends up being the odd man out behind the plate for Arizona. The D-backs will almost certainly begin 2023 with Moreno and Carson Kelly at catcher, leaving little room for Sanchez. He recorded a .743 OPS in Triple-A last season and will more than likely get picked up by another team off waivers.
DECEMBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Claimed by D-backs Sanchez was claimed off waivers from Pittsburgh by the Diamondbacks on Friday.
Impact Sanchez was claimed off waivers from Detroit earlier in the offseason, and will now join his third organization in less than two months. The 25-year-old backstop never saw the big leagues in 2022, but he put up a .743 OPS and collected 33 RBI in Triple-A over 252 plate appearances. If he makes the big-league roster, it's possible Sanchez splits time with Carson Kelly, pushing Daulton Varsho into the outfield full-time.

OCTOBER 19, 2022 • POST-GAZETTE.COM
Claimed by Pirates The Pirates claimed Sanchez off waivers from the Tigers on Tuesday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Impact Sanchez spent all of 2022 in Triple-A, slashing .262/.354/.389 with 33 RBI between Memphis and Toledo. He will replace Jose Godoy, who was designated for assignment by the Pirates on Tuesday.
OCTOBER 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Designated for assignment Sanchez was designated for assignment by the Tigers on Friday.
Impact Sanchez lost his roster spot when the Tigers claimed fellow organizational depth catching option Michael Papierski off waivers. Sanchez has appeared in seven career major-league games, none of which came in 2022.
OCTOBER 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Claimed by Tigers Sanchez was claimed off waivers by the Tigers and optioned to Triple-A Toledo on Saturday.
Impact Sanchez was cast off the Cardinals' 40-man roster Wednesday after he slashed .255/.333/.409 with four home runs, 15 runs, 12 RBI and a stolen base in 30 games at Triple-A Memphis to begin the year. He'll attempt to carve out a role in Toledo after being claimed by the Tigers.
