Cristopher Sánchez - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Rebounds for 18th win Sanchez (18-6) earned the win Sunday over the Mets, allowing two runs on six hits and no walks across 6.1 innings. He struck out six.

Impact It was a nice return to form for Sanchez, who had given up 11 runs across 12.1 innings in his previous two outings. The southpaw blanked the Mets for five innings Sunday before giving up a solo home run to Bo Bichette in the sixth. Overall, Sanchez sports a 2.93 ERA with a 1.22 WHIP and a career-high 221 strikeouts across 32 starts (200 innings) this year. Sanchez is currently in line for one more regular-start, tentatively scheduled to come next weekend at home against the Rays.

Yields five runs in loss to Washington Sanchez (17-6) took the loss against the Nationals on Tuesday, allowing five runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out five across 6.1 innings.

Impact Sanchez was looking to bounce back from his last outing this past Wednesday against the Astros, when he gave up six runs but still came away with the win. However, he gave up two runs in the first inning before yielding a solo homer to Andres Chaparro in the fifth to tie the game up at 3-3. Sanchez was still in line for the quality start after getting through six innings, but he was brought back out for the seventh and was tagged for two more runs after Jonathan Bowlan gave up a three-run homer to Dylan Lile. Sanchez has allowed at least three runs in four of his last five outings, and he now sits at a 2.93 ERA and 1.22 WHIP over 193.2 innings. He's tentatively slated to face the Mets on the road this weekend in what figures to be Sanchez's penultimate start of the regular season.

Nabs 17th victory Sanchez (17-5) earned the win against the Astros on Wednesday, allowing six runs on 10 hits and no walks in six innings. He struck out 10.

Impact It was a rare dud by the All-Star southpaw, who gave up his most runs since July 6 in Kansas City. It was also a surprise to see Sanchez serve up a pair of home runs after he gave up just two in his prior nine outings, but he's now worked at least five frames in all but one of his 30 starts on the year. He'll take an excellent 2.79 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 210:42 K:BB over 187.1 innings into his next scheduled appearance in Washington.

Gives up three runs in loss Sanchez (16-5) took the loss against Atlanta on Friday, allowing three runs on five hits and three walks while striking out five across six innings.

Impact Sanchez put the Phillies on the back foot early by allowing three runs in the second inning. He kept Atlanta off the board the rest of the way and secured a second-straight quality start, but he didn't get quite enough run support from his Phillies teammates to avoid the loss, and his five punchouts were his lowest since July 6 against the Royals (one). Sanchez will take a 2.58 ERA and 1.20 WHIP over 181.1 innings into his next start, which lines up for next week at home against the Astros.

Dominant in no-decision Sanchez allowed two hits and one walk while striking out eight over seven scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Angels on Saturday.

Impact After a small misstep against the Cardinals last Sunday, Sanchez delivered a gem to get himself back on track. This was the first time he's completed seven innings in a start since the All-Star break, but he's also given up just 13 runs (12 earned) over 48 frames across his eight starts in the second half. Sanchez is at an excellent 2.52 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 202:39 K:BB through 175.1 innings over 28 starts this season. He's projected to make his next start at home in a critical matchup against Atlanta.

Allows four runs in no-decision Sanchez didn't factor into the decision Sunday against the Cardinals, allowing four runs on nine hits over 6.2 innings. He struck out seven.

Impact It's the first time in eight starts that Sanchez has allowed more than three runs. He'd gone 6-0 over his previous seven outings with a 2.18 ERA and 50 strikeouts across 41.1 innings. Overall, Sanchez's ERA sits at 2.62 across 27 starts (168.1 innings) this year with a 1.22 WHIP and 194:38 K:BB. The southpaw is currently lined up for a road matchup with the Angels his next time out.

Moves into MLB lead with 16th victory Sanchez (16-4) earned the win over Miami on Monday, allowing one run on eight hits and three walks while striking out six batters over six innings.

Impact Sanchez held the Marlins scoreless until the sixth inning, when he gave up one run on two hits and a walk. That ended up being his final frame despite the fact that the southpaw was at a modest 90 pitches upon his departure. Sanchez had to sweat things out a bit as Philadelphia's bullpen gave up four runs over the final three innings, but the All-Star hurler ultimately was rewarded with his MLB-leading 16th victory. While Sanchez hasn't been quite as dominant since his 50.2-inning scoreless streak came to an end in early June, he's still been one of the league's top hurlers and is rolling along right now, posting a quality start in five of his past seven appearances. He's also struck out at least six batters in every start during that span, and he'll look to keep that streak going his next time out, which lines up to come at home versus St. Louis.

Goes six scoreless in no-decision Sanchez did not factor into the decision in Tuesday's 2-0 loss against the Cardinals, allowing four hits and no walks while striking out seven over six scoreless innings.

Impact Sanchez was locked in a pitcher's duel with Andre Pallante before departing in a scoreless tie, generating 15 whiffs on 89 pitches without allowing an extra-base hit. The outing ends a streak of five consecutive wins for the southpaw, and he's yielded just two earned runs with two quality starts through three August outings. He'll take a 2.54 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 181:35 K across 155.2 innings this season into a home matchup with the Marlins next week.

Picks up 15th win Sanchez (15-4) earned the win Thursday over the Nationals, allowing two runs on six hits and two walks over five innings. He struck out five.

Impact Sanchez wasn't at his best Thursday, as he failed to make it through six innings for just the second time in his last five starts. Still, the southpaw came away with his league-leading 15th win of the season and his sixth in his last seven outings. Overall, the 29-year-old Sanchez sports a 2.65 ERA with a 1.22 WHIP and 174:35 K:BB across 24 starts (149.2 innings) this year. He's currently in line to face the Cardinals on the road his next time out.
