Having Sanchez outdate all of those guys by several years is a terrible look. He's apparently asking for 6/90mm - which he'll never get but which is scary enough that it's hard not to then view whatever deal he's going to eventually sign as an inevitable disaster.

Ricky Nolasco is probably the next to go in the ridiculous Marlins sale. His ERA has always been weirdly out of proportion to his peripherals, which are pretty comparable to Sanchez'. I think the team that decides he's just had rough luck (um, for a half decade) could get a nice find.

Ryan Dempster has been weirdly undiscussed in the free agent pitching market too.
