Seems set for bullpen job

Sandlin walked one and struck out two in a scoreless inning during Thursday's Grapefruit League game against the Rays.

Analysis

The former Guardian was dealt to the Blue Jays in January and appears locked into a bullpen spot, albeit likely only in middle relief to begin the season. Sandlin has posted an 8:3 K:BB through five spring innings with a 3.60 ERA, but he's behind Yimi Garcia and Chad Green in the pecking order for setup work in front of closer Jeff Hoffman.
