Slowed by elbow soreness

Elbow
March 9, 2026
White Sox manager Will Venable said Monday that Sandlin has contended with elbow soreness recently but is slated to resume throwing Tuesday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
Analysis
Venable noted that Sandlin dealt with a back issue earlier in spring training prior to experiencing elbow soreness. The two injuries help explain why Sandlin never made an appearance in the Cactus League before the White Sox optioned him to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday. Sandlin is set to get back on a throwing program this week, but it's unclear if he'll have enough time to get fully built up before Charlotte begins its season in late March.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Move to 40-man roster incoming
PBoston Red Sox  AAA
November 18, 2025
Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports that Sandlin is a "lock" to be added to the Red Sox's 40-man roster ahead of Tuesday's Rule 5 protection deadline.
Analysis
Sandlin began the 2025 campaign at Double-A Portland, where he primarily worked as a starter and had a 3.61 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 86:27 K:BB across 82.1 innings. The right-hander was moved to the bullpen after getting promoted to Triple-A Worcester in late July, and he struggled as a reliever with 20 earned runs allowed in 15 appearances. The 24-year-old isn't viewed as one of Boston's most coveted prospects, but the organization will still protect him from being selected during the upcoming Rule 5 Draft.
