Stat Review
How does Nick Sandlin compare to other relievers?
This section compares his stats with all relief pitcher seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 30 innings)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.

* Exit Velocity, Barrels/BBE %, Balls Hit 95+ MPH %, and Spin Rate are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 30 IP). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

2021 Fantasy Outlook
The 67th overall pick in the 2018 draft was dominant when last fully healthy in 2019 with a 1.56 ERA and 14.2 K/9 at Double-A. Sandlin had forearm surgery in July 2019 and didn't pitch in a game in 2020. He did return to pitch at Cleveland's alternative site last season. The sidewinder will likely need to show he's healthy at Triple-A before getting a shot at the majors.
