Despite his success as a starter, Sanchez still may head to the bullpen, as originally planned, at some point this season, Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

Moving Sanchez (5-1, 2.99 ERA) to the bullpen sounds ludicrous considering he is having a breakout campaign, but his health is the reason for possibly making the move. Aside from suffering a back injury before spring training, he threw only 102 innings last season and his career-high is just 133.1. At 23 years old, Sanchez is just beginning his big league career and the team had always planned on using him sparingly as a starter in 2016. The Blue Jays control his rights through 2020, meaning he's one of their most important long-term pieces. The 2016 Blue Jays aren't the only consideration here. Losing Sanchez to the bullpen would be a devastating blow to fantasy teams, and this is a situation owners should be monitoring very closely.
