| Pirates getting production from 1B |
by Ed Gauna | CBSSports.com
(4/24/13) The Pirates have not implemented a strict platoon at first base between Garrett Jones and Gaby Sanchez, MLB.com reports. Still, the two entered Wednesday have combined to hit .367 (22 for 60) with three home runs and 16 RBI batting in the cleanup spot.
"We've had some guys at the top of the order create opportunities for them; Gaby [.381 with two home runs in eight games batting fourth] has matched up well against some left-handed pitching," manager Clint Hurdle said. "They've been able to collectively, in a small sample size, have some pretty good productivity. They are comfortable with it."

| Gaby Sanchez continues mashing lefties |
by Jack Moore | CBSSports.com
(4/24/13) Pirates first baseman Gaby Sanchez continues to thrive as the right-handed half of the club's first base platoon. He went 2 for 3 with his second home run Tuesday against left-hander Cole Hamels and Philadelphia.
Sanchez is hitting a robust 6 for 17 with two doubles and two home runs (1.274 OPS) against lefties, but righties have held him to just 2 for 14 without an extra-base hit (.421 OPS). As such, expect him to continue splitting time with Garrett Jones in a platoon at first base even if Sanchez's overall .885 seems to demand more at-bats.

| Gaby Sanchez was an All-Star for the Marlins in 2011, when he hit 19 home runs with 78 RBI, but endured the worst campaign of his career in 2012. He batted just .202 with a .306 slugging percentage in 55 games for Miami before being sent to Triple-A in early July. He was then traded to Pittsburgh at the deadline and the change of scenery did not help much. Sanchez saw just 299 at-bats in the majors last season and finished with 30 RBI and a .341 slugging percentage. The 29-year-old will likely platoon with Garrett Jones at first base for the Pirates in 2013, but based on the year he's coming off of, his appeal in Fantasy is minimal at this point. While he proved in his days with the Marlins to be a viable option in mixed leagues, plan on leaving Sanchez for NL-only formats on Draft Day. (Updated 12/4/12) |
