Eligibility
Availability
The Orioles have signed Gary Sanchez to a one-year contract.
Fantasy Impact
Sanchez will head back to the AL East and serve as the backup catcher to Adley Rutschman in Baltimore. The 32-year-old posted a .220 average, with 11 home runs, and 37 RBI in 245 at-bats last season.
The Brewers have declined their 2025 mutual option of Gary Sanchez.
Fantasy Impact
Sanchez will now head into the free agent market. The 31-year-old hit .220, with 11 home runs, and 37 RBI in 89 games last season.
Gary Sanchez went 1-for-4 with a home run and an RBI in the Brewers' 8-4 victory over the Mets.
Fantasy Impact
His solo blast contributed to the team's robust offensive performance, though his season-long struggles at the plate remain evident with a .220 batting average. Despite the low average, Sanchez's power potential is clear, as evidenced by his 11 home runs in 87 games. Fantasy managers should continue to view Sanchez as a risky play due to his high strikeout rate and inconsistent production.
Gary Sanchez is in the starting lineup for the Brewers Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Sanchez will serve as the DH and bat fourth against the Giants. He is hitting .223, with 10 home runs, and 35 RBI this season.
Gary Sanchez contributed to the Brewers' 5-2 win over the Rockies with a performance that included a solo home run.
Fantasy Impact
Sanchez went 1-for-3 with a home run, one run scored, and one RBI. This outing slightly elevates his season batting average to .227 and increases his home run tally to 10. While his power numbers are respectable for a catcher, his overall batting average and high strikeout rate remain concerns for fantasy managers. Sanchez's ability to hit for power is valuable, but his inconsistency at the plate could be a liability. Fantasy managers should consider him a risky play, best suited for matchups against favorable pitching.
