Ali Sanchez

The Marlins have designated Ali Sanchez for assignment.

Fantasy Impact

Sanchez will lose his spot on the 40-man roster. He will hit the waiver wire after hitting .167 in 31 games with the Marlins this season.

Ali Sanchez went 3-for-5 with a double, an RBI, a run scored, and two stolen bases in the Marlins' 12-8 victory over the Rockies.

Fantasy Impact

This performance could be a sign of turning things around for Sanchez, who has struggled mightily this season with a mere .173 batting average. His multi-hit game, coupled with the rare display of speed, might catch the eye of fantasy managers in deeper leagues or those in need of a catcher. However, given his overall season stats and high strikeout rate, it's wise to approach with caution. This game could be a fluke rather than a true breakout, so keep expectations tempered for now.
