Tim Anderson, ex-batting champ, finds new life with LA Angels: 'Life comes at you hard'
Briefly

Tim Anderson, a former two-time All-Star shortstop for the Chicago White Sox, is now playing center field for the Los Angeles Angels on a minor-league contract after a steep decline in performance due to injuries and personal issues. Once a consistent .300 hitter and a key player, Anderson's career took a downturn following family problems and losing his grandmother. Despite struggling through a tough stretch, he sees this new opportunity with the Angels as a chance for redemption. He emphasizes the importance of remembering his identity amid the challenges he faced.
"They're really emphasizing to me to remember who I am. You know I never forgot. I never forgot. I just went through a tough stretch."
"It was a little of everything. I had a lot going on. And we're talking about things that not only you guys [media] see. I had a whole lot of stuff going on behind the scenes."
