"Anderson posted an unremarkable 4.35 ERA across 10 spring outings, but did punch out more than a batter per inning. He was competing for a bullpen spot with fellow non-roster invitees."
"Injuries took a toll on Anderson beginning in the 2020 campaign. He missed time with forearm inflammation, a lower back strain, a torn UCL, and plantar fasciitis over the next three years."
"Anderson emerged as a weapon on a Rays club that won 96 games. He posted a ridiculous 52.6% strikeout rate in 21 1/3 innings down the stretch."
Nick Anderson, a right-handed reliever, intends to activate his upward mobility clause in his minor league deal with the Athletics. This suggests he has not secured a spot on the team's Opening Day roster. By triggering the clause, he will be available to all other MLB teams. Anderson had a 4.35 ERA in spring training and previously struggled with a 6.14 ERA last season. Injuries have plagued his career since 2020, leading to stints with multiple organizations.
