Now that Heineman was pulled from the game and will likely be out for at least a few days, it looks like Sanchez will be sticking around in Toronto for a little longer.
While it is way too early to tell how long Heineman will be out for, there is a good chance he sits on IL as first reports indicate that he bruised his head which means this could be serious.
Despite the signs, manager John Schneider stated that Heineman does not have any concussion symptoms.
