Pirates Release Angel Sanchez To Sign With KBO’s SK Wyverns

By Jeff Todd | November 27, 2017 at 8:57pm CDT

8:57pm: Sanchez has signed with Korea’s SK Wyverns, per a team announcement (h/t Dan Kurtz of MyKBO.net, on Twitter). He’ll play for $1.1MM in 2018.

6:29pm: The Pirates have released right-hander Angel Sanchez, as reflected on the team’s transactions page (h/t MLB.com’s Adam Berry) and as first noted by Pirates Prospects. That leaves the team with two free 40-man spots after adding lefty Sam Moll via waiver claim earlier today.

Sanchez, who turns 28 tomorrow, made his MLB debut in 2017 with the Bucs, allowing a dozen earned runs on five home runs over 12 1/3 innings. On the other hand, he did record ten strikeouts against just one walk while exhibiting some swing-and-miss ability and a 96 mph heater. Through 55 1/3 frames at Triple-A, Sanchez worked to a 3.74 ERA with 10.6 K/9 and 2.4 BB/9.

    Good for Angel, making over a million for one year instead of half that only for the days he’s on the 25 man roster, which was very few last year. If he establishes himself in Korea as a viable reliever, I assume he can come back next year as a free agent and skip arbitration altogher.

    “Angel, we think you’re going to be a bullpen mainstay next year. Just not on this continent.”
