Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Aaron Sanchez will start for the triple-A Buffalo Bisons in a rehab assignment on Thursday.

The 23-year-old has been out of Major League action since June 14 due to a lat strain. He's already made two rehab starts in the Gulf Coast League and single-A.

Sanchez has a 5-4 record with a 3.55 earned run average and 42 strikeouts in 11 starts this season.
