Gaby Sanchez hit an RBI double off of Brandon Lyon in the 11th inning Friday to give the Marlins a 5-4 victory over the Astros. Sanchez finished the night 3-for-5 with that all important game winning RBI. He's come out of the gate slow this season, but this is exactly the type of thing that can get a hitter going. Though he's been dropped to seventh in the Marlins lineup, he still has the potential and the ability to drive in plenty of runs.

Gaby Sanchez went 0-for-4 on Wednesday, leaving him with a .215 average in 186 at-bats since the All-Star break. Sanchez looked like a legitimate All-Star candidate for the first two months, but he's been a below average regular since. The Marlins should seriously think about trading him this winter so that they can improve their outfield defense by putting Logan Morrison at first base.

Gaby Sanchez was scratched from Tuesday's lineup against the Nationals due to a tight hamstring. Greg Dobbs will take his place at third base and bat third against right-hander Jordan Zimmermann. It's probably safe to call Sanchez day-to-day right now.
