One of the top Blue Jays prospect pitchers in the organization from 2010 to 2014, Aaron Sanchez was known for his size, his arsenal of pitches including a mid 90’s fastball and a sweeping curve, and explosive delivery to the plate. While he was once one of the organization’s top prospects roughly ten years ago, Sanchez did experience some success (and some rough years) when he was a member of the Blue Jays.
