Blue Jays: Believe it or not, a blister can change everything

One of the more maddening injuries in professional baseball is when a pitcher gets a blister on their throwing hand. It seems like an insignificant problem, but for a professional hurler with the smallest of margins for error, it’s a very big deal.

This has been the story of Aaron Sanchez‘s career as a baseball player for the last several years. He missed all but eight starts in 2017, and was limited to 20 starts last year, covering just 105 innings. So far this season Sanchez had made 10 starts, mostly looking strong and healthy so far in 2019.
