Sanchez (finger) remains on track to start the Blue Jays' fifth game of the season Saturday against the Rays, MLB.com's Gregor Chisolm reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sanchez worked through a side session Sunday with no issues, which is why the Blue Jays are optimistic his first start of the season will go off without a hitch come Saturday. The 24-year-old struggled during spring training, racking up a 8.44 ERA. That sharply contrasts to the numbers the right-hander posted last season, which included a 3.00 ERA and a 15-2 record.
