Detroit Tigers SP Anibal Sanchez (finger) will throw another bullpen session Thursday, May 8. He is working back from a right middle finger laceration, and is not eligible to come off the 15-day disabled list until Monday, May 12.

Fantasy Tip: It is still unclear if Sanchez will be brought back when eligible or if he'll need a minor-league rehab start. If he does come back Monday, he is an attractive play in most fantasy leagues since he'll be a two-start pitcher in the upcoming week.

Tigers | Anibal Sanchez to DL

Sat, 26 Apr 2014 15:53:31 -0700

Detroit Tigers SP Anibal Sanchez (finger) was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a laceration on his right middle finger. SP Drew Smyly will return from the bullpen to take his spot. The Tigers have two days off next week and won't need a fifth starter until May 6.

Fantasy Tip: If Smyly was dropped in your league, scoop him up. Sanchez should only miss a couple of starts if he doesn't need a rehab outing before returning.
