Sanchez will sit Thursday against the Royals, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

Sanchez's Twins career hasn't gotten off to a great start, as he's hit .216/.275/.378 with a 32.5 percent strikeout rate through 40 plate appearances. Ryan Jeffers starts behind the plate Thursday, with Byron Buxton returning from a knee injury to serve as the designated hitter.
