Blue Jays designated OF Jesús Sánchez for assignment.

The 28-year-old has been worth negative-one BBWAR this year while hitting .260/.318/.416 with eight homers and a stolen base in 299 plate appearances. Sánchez missed about a month with an ankle sprain at the end of June continuing in to July. He still has some power, but his speed declined this year (one stolen base compared to 13 in 2025) and his defense has been abysmal. It’s possible he’s claimed on waivers. He is arbitration eligible next offseason, but it would be surprising if a team wanted to pay him more than $6.8 million he made this year.
