Sanchez allowed a run on three hits and struck out one in two innings during Friday's 9-6 loss to Houston.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander missed nearly three months with biceps tightness, and he battled a blister issue during his rehab assignment. Sanchez's first outing since he was activated from the 60-day injured list Thursday was a mixed bag. He's expected to fill a multi-inning role out of the bullpen going forward. He's posted a 3.26 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 25:10 K:BB through 30.1 innings this year.
