The Brewers declined their side of Sanchez's mutual option for 2027 on Monday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Sanchez had a nice campaign as the Brewers' No. 2 catcher, posting a .771 OPS with 12 home runs during the regular season. It's unlikely the soon-to-be 34-year-old will be entrusted with a starting job anywhere, but Sanchez should draw interest as a second catcher and occasional designated hitter.

Sanchez went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 6-4 win over the Cardinals.
Sanchez continued to see limited playing time in September, going 6-for-26 (.231) over 10 contests. He snapped a 10-game power drought with his third-inning homer, which proved to be the difference in the contest. Sanchez hit .209 with a .771 OPS, 12 homers, 38 RBI, 37 runs scored, 10 doubles and one triple over 275 plate appearances this season. He'll back up William Contreras at catcher during the postseason.

Sanchez went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Sunday's 7-4 loss to the Rangers.
Sanchez got the start behind the plate Sunday with William Contreras receiving a rest day and provided Milwaukee with a two-run homer in the seventh inning. The long ball was a welcome sight for Sanchez, who entered the contest riding a 1-for-26 slump. He's slashing .207/.347/.429 with 11 homers, nine doubles, one triple, 34 RBI and 34 runs scored across 242 plate appearances this season.

Sanchez went 2-for-4 with a home run and an RBI double in Wednesday's 4-3 extra-innings loss to the Padres.
Sanchez opened the scoring in the second inning with a two-out, solo shot off Robbie Ray, his 10th long ball this season. Sanchez, who's gone 5-for-11 with two homers and two doubles in his last five games, got the start behind the plate Wednesday, though he's primarily been limited to starts against left-handed pitchers or pinch-hitting duties. Overall, Sanchez is slashing .230/.379/.473 across 206 plate appearances this year with 31 runs scored and 29 RBI.

Sanchez went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Pirates.
After sitting six straight games, Sanchez got the start Thursday while William Contreras received a day of rest. The veteran catcher snapped a 2-2 tie in the fifth inning by taking Braxton Ashcraft deep for a solo home run. Sanchez added a single an inning later for his sixth multi-hit effort of the season. Since the beginning of July, he is batting 7-for-29 (.241) across 11 games. On the year, he owns a .223 batting average with an .818 OPS over 196 plate appearances.
