4/17/23 Why Nick Anderson could be a steal for the Atlanta Braves. Why Nick Anderson could be a steal for the Atlanta Braves Nick Anderson could be key for the Atlanta Braves. Author: Noah Griffith Publish date: Apr 17, 2023 8:22 PM EDT Remember when Rays manager Kevin Cash notoriously strolled out to pull Blake Snell in game six of the 2020 World Series? It didn't get the results the Rays wanted, but Nick Anderson gave his manager a decent argument for pulling his ace. In 19 appearances with Tampa Bay in 2020, the reliever owned a 0.55 ERA and was perfect on six save opportunities. Things took a dip after the loss in game six, however, as he spent the 2022 season recovering from an elbow procedure and then dealing with plantar fasciitis. Now, the 32-year-old

3/18/23 MLB: Anderson hopes to continue his MLB career with Braves.

Feeling good is a relief for Anderson, who has been on the comeback trail the past 18 months since undergoing right elbow surgery in September of 2021. “My arm feels solid this spring,” said Anderson, who has compiled a 3.60 earned-run average with 10 strikeouts in five appearances for the Braves this spring.

11/09/22 Rays place Nick Anderson on outright waivers to clear roster space. ST.

10/20/22 Rays 40-man roster end of season update. Right now, there are only two open spots on the 40-man roster, which means the Rays will need to find a way to clear five additional spots in order to protect all seven of these injured players. It is fair to wonder though if all seven of these players will in fact be protected. For example, will Tampa Bay look to move on from oft-injured pitchers like Nick Anderson and Brendan McKay?

7/29/22 Rays Trade Deadline 2022: Cubs starters, maybe starters, and long relievers. Now we’ll at how the Rays might use a trade with the Cubs to improve their pitching length. Acquiring length alongside one of those relievers would fit the Rays modus operandi, and be analogous to the 2019 trade that brought Nick Anderson and Trevor Richards (who at the time was a roughly average starter in Miami) to Tampa Bay. While Anderson was the high profile star, Richards gave valuable length as a swing man to a starting rotation that was reeling due to injury.
