Sanchez to miss a start?

Jonathan Sanchez was spotted warming up in the bullpen in the sixth inning last night. The Giants have an off day today Before they Face-off against The Padres for a three game Set Starting Tuesday. Zito is slated to go for the first game of this series, however I would not be surprised if Lincecum is bumped up an extra day and Sanchez gets bumped for a week. Based on the way he has been pitching in his last few starts, this seems to make a lot of sense. Looks like we will have to wait and see what happens in the couple of days...

  1. the skipped start last time is what's made him awful recently. I worry about what it will do to him again

  2. Yeah, with Sanchez it's all about mentality. Bumping him in April made him doubt himself -- "why would they bump me when I'm doing a good job? maybe I'm not doing a good job?" -- and he's been shaky on the mound ever since. He screws up early and can't pull his head out of it.
