Sánchez joins Jace Bohrofen (April 14-20) on the list of 2025 Fisher Cats to receive Eastern League recognition and is the first Cats pitcher to be recognized since right-handers CJ Van Eyk (May 6 - May 12) and Michael Dominguez (May 27 - June 2) received PoW honors in 2024.
From Antilla, Cuba, Sánchez signed a free agent contract with Toronto in May 2022. Sánchez began the 2024 season with High-A Vancouver and won five of seven decisions in 16 outings to the tune of a 4.03 earned run average.

In his Double-A debut, Sánchez fired his first complete game with New Hampshire with seven scoreless innings in Binghamton; Sánchez fell one strike shy of back-to-back- complete game shutouts in his next outing against Erie in Manchester on August 10, 2024.
