Gary Sanchez, the Yankees catcher that took the minor
leagues and the Arizona Fall League by storm only to fall short in a spring
training competition. Gary Sanchez, the man that made Yankees GM Brian Cashman
confident about trading backup catcher John Ryan Murphy to the Minnesota Twins
for backup outfielder Aaron Hicks. Gary Sanchez, the subject of our latest
weekly check in post here on the blog.
Gary Sanchez had a solid season in Double-A last season
which led New York to call him up to Triple-A towards the end of the 2015
campaign. Sanchez was called up after an injury to Austin Romine occurred and
he was thought to simply be a warm body in Scranton until his bat took off and
took off in a big way. Sanchez earned a September call up last season and picked
up his first MLB hit before heading to Arizona with the Surprise Saguaros to
continue his torrid hitting.
Sanchez started spring slow and headed back down to Triple-A
to begin the season but he will be back, he has a reserved front seat in the
Scranton Shuttle, but until then we will check in with him every Wednesday
morning. Starting now, enjoy.
