2026 review
Patrick Sandoval made 15 games with 13 GS for BOS, posting a 5.12 ERA and 1.68 WHIP in 70.1 IP, a 22.7 K% and 10.0 BB% over 321 BF, going 1 W and 7 L. He opened the year on the 15-day IL, retroactive to Mar 22, for left UCL surgery recovery, worked through several rehab assignments, and was activated from the 60-day IL on Jul 6, missing 103 regular-season days. Drafted at NFBC ADP rank 1280, he finished 1300th of 1472 in the TDK LABS 5x5 value rank, 782nd of 811 pitchers and 212th of 236 starters. His best month was Jul at a 3.32 ERA in 19.0 IP, and his worst was Sep at a 6.75 ERA in 25.1 IP. The TDK LABS card traced his return: reinstated Jul 7 off the injured list, a clean but workload-capped debut by Jul 23, volatility defining the arm by late Aug, and by late Sep still building up, with the high ERA coming from balls falling in and weak stranding.
