Most of that swing-and-miss comes with Sandlin's slider and splitter, which he used to finish nearly three-quarters of his strikeouts in 2024. Sandlin has used his slider as his primary pitch in each of his four MLB seasons, adding or subtracting from its velocity and shape - Sandlin threw the pitch anywhere from 75-83 m.p.h. last season with spin rates ranging from 2,200 to 2,800 - when he wants it sweepier to encourage hitters to chase or tighter to land for a strike.
The Jays made an offer to Anthony Santander in the last couple of days. There is no word on whether he is considering it or using it to shop for offers from other teams. Or, for that matter, how much they offered.
There is also a rumour that the Jays and Vlad Guerrero are $100 million apart in their negotiations. It sounds like a lot of money. But then that's roughly what Rogers charges me monthly for my cell phone, so pony up. Just sign the man.
They have also talked to Jack Flaherty. He might be looking for a one-year deal to prove he's healthy.
