A year ago, the Pirates claimed Angel Sanchez from the Chicago White Sox. The right-hander had bounced around a lot during the 2014 season, with the Pirates being the fourth team that claimed him off waivers. But it looked like he finally found a landing spot with the Pirates. They snuck him through waivers in the off-season, gave him an invite to MLB Spring Training, and gave him a starting spot in the upper levels.
Sanchez found success in the Pirates' system. But unfortunately he will undergo Tommy John surgery, which our Indianapolis writer Ryan Palencer confirmed with Sanchez himself.
