Miami Marlins outfielder Jesus Sanchez will retreat to the bench on Tuesday with the team facing the visiting Tampa Bay Rays. Jorge Soler is starting in right field and batting in the two-hole, while Josh Bell will serve as the designated hitter and bat third against rays right-hander Aaron Civale. Sanchez could use a day off, as he's gone 2-for-17 (.118) with no homers, a double, a triple, three RBI and a run scored in his last eight games (six starts) since Aug. 19. Overall, the 25-year-old Dominican outfielder has had a decent fourth year in Miami, batting .262 (72-for-275) with 10 home runs, 20 doubles, two triples, 42 RBI, three stolen bases and 32 runs scored in 96 games. Sanchez is currently five homers away from setting a new career-high in that statistic.

Miami Marlins outfielder Jesus Sanchez is taking a seat on the bench to begin Tuesday's game against lefty Blake Snell and the San Diego Padres. The 25-year-old has broken out this season with a .269/.332/.466 slash line, 10 home runs, 31 runs, 40 RBI, and three steals across 91 contests, but hasn't faced many left-handers thanks to a career .584 OPS against southpaws. Avisail Garcia will take his spot in the outfield and bat fifth. The veteran hasn't been productive since 2021 and has posted a .189 batting average across 36 games this season, so fantasy managers can keep him on the waiver wire in all leagues.

Miami Marlins outfielder Jesus Sanchez is back in the starting lineup Tuesday night against the visiting Houston Astros and right-hander Cristian Javier. The 25-year-old didn't start Monday's series opener but did enter his club's 5-1 win to play defense in place of right fielder Jorge Soler in the ninth inning. Sanchez has dealt with injuries this season but has been productive when healthy, hitting .264 with 10 homers, three stolen bases, and a .785 OPS, production that sits 13% above the league average, according to his 113 wRC+. He has a solid matchup on tap against Javier who has surrendered an .823 OPS to left-handed hitters this season.

Miami Marlins outfielder Jesus Sanchez and infielder Joey Wendle are both starting on the bench on Monday with the club facing Houston Astros left-hander Framber Valdez. Avisail Garcia is starting in left field and is batting seventh, while Jon Berti will handle shortstop and hit in the nine-hole on Monday against Valdez. Sanchez is hitting .280 against left-handed hurlers this year, but he's faced them only 27 times in 2023 and will likely continue to sit when the team faces a southpaw. Wendle, meanwhile, is pretty much in the same boat as Sanchez when it comes to facing lefties. The 33-year-old has faced them 25 times this year and has gone 6-for-23 (.261) with no home runs or RBI.

Miami Marlins outfielder Jesus Sanchez (neck) is back in action on Friday, starting in center field and batting cleanup against the visiting Detroit Tigers and right-hander Reese Olson. Sanchez left the game early on Wednesday with neck tightness, but it wasn't a serious injury and he'll be available for a series against the Tigers this weekend. The 25-year-old Dominican left-handed hitter doesn't usually play much against left-handed pitchers, but he's an option for fantasy managers in deep-mixed leagues when he's facing righties. In 72 games (233 plate appearances) for the Marlins in his fourth major-league season in 2023, Sanchez is hitting .258 (55-for-213) with 10 homers, 16 doubles, 35 RBI, three steals and 26 runs. Nine of his 10 homers have come against righties.

Miami Marlins outfielder Jesus Sanchez (neck) left the team's game early on Wednesday against the Tampa Bay Rays due to neck tightness, according to the club. It was initially speculated that Sanchez injured his leg after having to be helped off the field. Until we know more about the 25-year-old's neck injury, fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day. The Fish have a day off on Friday, so hopefully he'll be back in action on Friday for the series opener against the visiting Detroit Tigers. Sanchez went 0-for-1 in his lone at-bat on Wednesday before being replaced by Garrett Hampson in right field. He entered Wednesday's contest hitting .259/.323/.476 with 10 home runs, 16 doubles, 35 RBI, three stolen bases and 26 runs scored in 71 games in 2023.

Miami Marlins outfielder Jesus Sanchez and infielder Joey Wendle are both sitting out on Wednesday against the visiting St. Louis Cardinals and left-hander Matthew Liberatore. Jorge Soler is starting in right field and batting second, while Jon Berti will handle shortstop and hit ninth in the batting order against Liberatore. Sanchez is hitting .294 against lefties in 2023, but it's come in a small sample size of only 17 at-bats. He's currently riding a modest five-game hitting streak that has seen him go 7-for-18 (.389) with two homers and eight RBI. Wendle, who also hits from the left side of the plate, is hitting .455 against southpaws, but in only 11 at-bats in 2023. He's gone 11-for-31 (.355) with no homers or RBI in his last eight games played.

Miami Marlins outfielder Jesus Sanchez is not in the starting lineup Tuesday against the Toronto Blue Jays and left-hander Yusei Kikuchi. Sanchez was in the middle of Monday's 11-0 rout of the Blue Jays, collecting two doubles along with two runs and an RBI across five trips to the plate. However, it's not surprising to see the lefty-swinging 25-year-old hit the bench against the left-handed Kikuchi on Tuesday. For the season, Sanchez is hitting a healthy .276 along with six home runs, three stolen bases, and an .856 OPS across 142 trips to the plate. Fantasy managers can also sleep well knowing Sanchez's .373 xwOBA is actually a slight improvement on his .369 wOBA, leaving little chance for much regression moving forward.

Miami Marlins outfielder Jesus Sanchez had a big game at the plate on Friday against the Oakland Athletics, going 3-for-4 with a home run, two RBI, and one run, leading his team to the 4-0 victory. The day brought his slash line to .316/.379/.582, and he's now gone deep 10 times with 10 runs, 12 RBI, and three steals across 33 games. Sanchez has batted in the cleanup spot the past two games and could be a mainstay there if he continues to mash. Fantasy managers looking for outfield help should consider adding the 25-year-old to their roster.

The Miami Marlins reinstated outfielder Jesus Sanchez (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday and optioned infielder Xavier Edwards to the minors in a corresponding move. Sanchez is not in the team's starting lineup on Tuesday against the San Diego Padres, but the 25-year-old could eventually stepped back into meaningful playing time for the Fish after hitting .290 (20-for-69) with nine doubles, three home runs, 10 RBI, three stolen bases and nine runs scored in 77 plate appearances over 29 games played before his injury. Sanchez hasn't played since May 10 but appeared in three minor-league rehab games for Triple-A Jacksonville and went 3-for-12 with an RBI.

According to Marlins beat writer Kevin Barral, outfielder Jesus Sanchez (hamstring) will play in his final rehab game on Sunday and return to Miami for the series with the Padres. The 25-year-old has missed a few weeks because of a hamstring strain. However, the Fish will welcome him back with open arms, considering he was hitting .290 with 10 RBI, nine doubles, three home runs, and three stolen bases before going on the shelf. Sanchez hasn't been a coveted fantasy option this season. Yet, he'll draw more interest from fantasy managers if he picks up where he left off.

Miami Marlins outfielder Jesus Sanchez (hamstring) is beginning a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday night. Barring a setback in game action this weekend, Sanchez figures to come off the injured list and rejoin Miami's lineup sometime early next week. The 25-year-old was initially put on the injured list back on May 14 with a right-hamstring strain, but he was hitting an impressive .290 (20-for-69) with nine doubles, three home runs, 10 RBI, three stolen bases and nine runs scored in 77 trips to the plate and 29 games before his injury. Sanchez is currently only rostered in 2% of Yahoo leagues, so if you're in need of outfield help in deeper mixed leagues, consider picking him up off the waiver wire.

The injury occurred in the top of the first inning and Sanchez was replaced by Peyton Burdick in the bottom half of the frame.

The 25-year-old injured his hamstring in Wednesday's game and was held out on Friday for the series opener, but he appeared off the bench. Sanchez only has 69 at-bats over 28 games so far in 2023, but he's hitting a strong .290 (20-for-69) with nine doubles, three home runs, 10 RBI, three stolen bases and nine runs scored in his 77 trips to the plate. Fantasy managers in deep-mixed leagues will want to get him back into their lineups.

The 25-year-old appeared to hurt his hamstring while legging out a double during the ninth inning. He was having a monster day, going 2-for-4 with a homer and three RBI prior to suffering the setback. The speedy outfielder was trending up of late, too, hitting .476 (10-for-21) over his last five games, including Wednesday's effort. Look for an update following the game at some point on Sanchez's status and whether he'll require a stay on the injured list or not.

Miami Marlins outfielder Jesus Sanchez will be in the starting lineup on Friday against Corbin Burnes and the Milwaukee Brewers. He will hit fifth as the designated hitter for the fish. It will mark the first time Sanchez has been in a major league lineup since August 2. Sanchez has immense potential and can crush the ball, but his strikeout rate is out of control and he hasn't been able to make consistent enough hard contact to make up for it. The big lefty has a .205/.271/.387 slash line this season to go along with 12 homers and a steal. He shouldn't be added outside of the deepest of leagues, but could be someone to watch next season.

Miami Marlins outfielder Jesus Sanchez (back) is being held out of action for Wednesday night's game against right-hander Josiah Gray and the Washington Nationals. Bryan De La Cruz is getting the start in center field and batting ninth in the game. Sanchez exited Tuesday's game due to upper back tightness. He is being considered day-to-day.

Miami Marlins outfielder Jesus Sanchez (back) exited Tuesday's game against the Washington Nationals due to upper back tightness. The 24-year-old was pinch-hit for in the bottom of the second inning after experiencing tightness in his upper back. He played the field for the first two frames and was replaced by Bryan De La Cruz. The severity of Sanchez's injury is unknown now, and he's considered day-to-day. De La Cruz would see an uptick in at-bats if Sanchez were to miss any games. The 25-year-old went 1-for-5 with a run scored during Tuesday's contest.

Miami Marlins outfielder Jesus Sanchez is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against right-hander Aaron Sanchez and the Washington Nationals. Bryan De La Cruz will be covering center field and batting seventh in the game. After a nice start to the year, Sanchez has gone ice cold at the plate in May. Over 13 games this month, he's slashing just .089/.146/.111 with one extra-base hit, a double. While his 114 mph max exit velocity ranks in the 95th percentile of the league, he has an average exit velocity of just 88.7 mph, ranking in the 43rd percentile and down from 90.2 mph last year.

Miami Marlins second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. and outfielder Jesus Sanchez are both absent from Saturday's lineup versus Phillies left-hander Ranger Suarez. Jon Berti is playing the keystone and batting ninth while Bryan De La Cruz is taking over duties in center field and batting seventh. Chisholm is holding his own with the bat so far in 2022 with a pair of homers, seven RBI, and a .278 BA through six games as it won't be uncommon for him to sit versus some left-handed starters. Sanchez, also a left-handed swinger, will take a seat for the first time this year after starting off his season to a .310 BA with two homers and six RBI. Both batters should return to the lineup on Sunday versus right-hander Zack Wheeler.
