Sanchez (foot, quad) has resumed his rehab with Triple-A El Paso, going 1-for-11 in three starts behind the dish, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

The veteran backstop was sidelined for almost an additional month after suffering a lower-body setback during his first rehab stint in the minors. Now that he has a few games under his belt, the Padres may opt to call the 27-year-old up for depth after Austin Hedges suffered a thigh injury Monday. If the latter is forced to go on the disabled list and a corresponding roster move is made, Sanchez would see a quick boost in value as a short-term starter for those in deep two-catcher formats.
