Sanchez (thumb) has been taking grounders at first base, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.
Sanchez has been nursing a right thumb injury, but it appears the Yankees are at least willing to explore their options with regular first baseman Mark Teixeira on the disabled list. The catcher is still on the minor league DL, but it sounds like he may be nearing a return, though it remains to be seen whether he'll be called up or stay at Triple-A when healthy.
