Aníbal Sánchez received no decision in his five-inning, 98-pitch outing against the San Diego Padres last week in D.C., leaving him winless in six starts so far in 2022, in which Washington’s 38-year-old starter has gone (0-5) with a 7.20 ERA, a 7.48 FIP, 14 walks, 12 strikeouts, and a .286/.363/.571 line against in 30 IP since he returned to the rotation.
Sánchez missed the first three and a half months while dealing with a cervical nerve impingement in his neck, which his manager tried to tell him played a role in his early struggles since returning to the mound.
