Manager Joe Girardi said Sanchez (biceps) will be placed on the 10-day disabled list, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.
Sanchez was forced to leave Saturday's game after awkwardly fouling off a pitch, and it appears the right biceps strain he suffered will require a stint on the DL. Kyle Higashioka will be called up to fill the catching void left by Sanchez, though Austin Romine will likely see the bulk of starts in his place. Given that the injury was to Sanchez's throwing arm, it wouldn't be a surprise if the Yankees were cautious with his recovery, but his status will be updated once the team provides some sort of timetable for his return.
