Placed on paternity leave
The Yankees placed Sanchez (wrist) on the paternity leave list Tuesday.
Analysis
Sanchez will be away from the club for a few days while welcoming a new baby to the family. The catcher exited Monday's contest versus the Tigers after being hit on the right wrist by a pitch. X-rays came back clean, but Sanchez still needs to undergo a CT scan, so it's possible he'll need to miss additional time after he's back from paternity leave.

X-rays come back negative
Sanchez took X-rays immediately following his early departure from Monday's game which came back negative, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.
Analysis
After being replaced by Austin Wells in the top of the seventh, Sanchez's X-rays on his right wrist came back negative. Manager Aaron Boone said the catcher will go for a CT scan and is hopeful that this is just a "day to day thing."
