5 years agoNew York Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez (back) was diagnosed with the flu after being held out of batting practice on Tuesday. There had been some speculation that Sanchez would undergo testing for coronavirus, so this is a relatively positive outcome for Sanchez. It's unclear how long Sanchez will be sidelined with the flu, but the extra time off should help his sore back heal. Barring any setbacks, Sanchez appears to be on track for Opening Day and fantasy owners should monitor his health over the next few days.--Sam Chinitz
