Sanchez throws pain-free bullpen session
John Gibbons talks about Aaron Sanchez's split fingernail that forced him to leave after one inning in the Blue Jays' 3-1 win over the RaysST. PETERSBURG -- Blue Jays starter Aaron Sanchez returned to the mound on Sunday morning, tossing a 33-pitch bullpen session without limitation as he recovers from a split nail on his right hand.
Sanchez, 0-1 with a 4.05 ERA in three starts, said he was able to mix in all of his pitches -- including his curveball which had given him issues -- freely without pain. He plans to make a start on Tuesday in an extended spring training game before rejoining the Blue Jays sometime during the next homestand.
