Sanchez is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Angels, Pete Caldera of The Record reports.
Sanchez will take a seat despite being in the midst of a five-game power binge; he's gone 9-for-21 (.429) with six extra-base hits and 13 RBI over that stretch. Austin Romine will draw the start behind the dish in his place as Masahiro Tanaka takes the mound for the Yankees.
