Blue Jays' Aaron Sanchez: Deals with blister in Sunday's start

Sanchez dealt with a blister issue during Sunday's rough outing against the Red Sox, and his next start is to be determined, MLB.com's Gregor Chisholm reports. He matched a career high with six earned runs, and his 3.1 innings Sunday marked his shortest start since Apr. 11 of 2015.

Analysis:

The exact nature of the injury can depend on the day for Sanchez. He dealt with a similar wound, which has been described as a hot spot, in spring training, and it resurfaced Sunday. The Blue Jays were already planning on pushing Sanchez's next start back a couple days in an effort to manage his workload, and that now seems like a certainty. Stay tuned for word of when he'll make his next start, but owners should be aware that he is not a lock to make a start during this upcoming week.
