2013

Subscribe now to see our 2013 outlook.

2012

It was a memorable year for Sanchez, who made his big-league debut in April, closed for a little while, hit the 60-day DL with a shoulder injury, pitched one game in September and then earned a World Series ring. Overall his numbers were strong in his rookie season, as he gave up just 14 hits in 30 innings and struck out 35. He'll likely play a significant role in the St. Louis bullpen again in 2012, especially if he can keep his batting average against as low as it was last year (.144).

2010

Agreed to a minor league contract with the Cardinals in January 2010.
