Bryan Anderson - C - White Sox

White Sox signed C Bryan Anderson to a minor league contract.

He's been given an invitation to spring training. Anderson used to be a decent prospect a while back but batted an ugly .225/.302/.317 at Triple-A in 2012. Even with the White Sox' lack of catching depth, he seems likely to start 2013 at Triple-A.

Wed, Nov 21, 2012 04:28:00 PM

Bryan Anderson - C - White Sox

Bryan Anderson has elected free agency.

The 25-year-old backstop hit an underwhelming .225/.302/.317 with six homers and 35 RBI at Triple-A Memphis before appearing in 10 games with the Cardinals as a September call-up. He has decided to explore the free agent market rather than accepting an assignment to Triple-A.

Bryan Anderson - C - White Sox

Cardinals sent C Bryan Anderson outright to Triple-A Memphis.

Anderson appeared in 10 games with the Cardinals as a September callup. The 25-year-old is expected to open the 2013 season at the Triple-A level.

Sat, Nov 3, 2012 09:57:00 AM

Bryan Anderson - C - White Sox

Cardinals recalled C Bryan Anderson from Triple-A Memphis.

He'll serve as insurance behind the plate while Yadier Molina is banged up. Tony Cruz will handle the starting job while Yadi is out.

Tue, Aug 28, 2012 10:24:00 PM

Bryan Anderson - C - White Sox

Cardinals optioned C Bryan Anderson to Triple-A Memphis.

Anderson was called up last weekend after Yadier Molina was on the bereavement list, but he didn't make an appearance during his brief stint with the big club. The 25-year-old will return to a .210/.295/.272 batting line at the Triple-A level.

Bryan Anderson - C - White Sox

Cardinals recalled C Bryan Anderson from Triple-A Memphis.

He'll split playing time with Tony Cruz while Yadier Molina is on the bereavement list. Anderson, 25, is hitting .210/.295/.272 with two homers and a .568 OPS in 64 games at the Triple-A level this year. He can be ignored in fantasy leagues.

Fri, Jul 6, 2012 05:08:00 PM

Bryan Anderson - C - White Sox

Cardinals optioned C Bryan Anderson to Triple-A Memphis.

With Anderson being sent down, that means Tony Cruz has won the backup starting catcher job. The Cardinals also reassigned right-hander Victor Marte and outfielder-infielder Eugenio Velez to minor league camp.

Fri, Mar 30, 2012 04:18:00 PM

Bryan Anderson - C - White Sox

Bryan Anderson went 2-for-3 with a double and a walk Tuesday against the Astros.

Anderson is 6-for-13 with four walks this spring and is easily outshining fellow backup catcher candidates Tony Cruz and Koyie Hill with the bat. But offense isn't going to be the determining factor here. Anderson has the worst defensive reputation of the trio, and he'll have to overcome that to stick with Mike Matheny's team.

Tue, Mar 20, 2012 04:09:00 PM

Bryan Anderson - C - White Sox

Cardinals optioned C Bryan Anderson and OF Adron Chambers to Triple-A Memphis.

The Cards will roll with Yadier Molina and Gerald Laird as their big league catching duo this season. Anderson will only get the call in the event of an injury. Chambers opened some eyes this spring but is still about a year away from contributing at the major league level.

Bryan Anderson - C - White Sox

Cardinals recalled C Bryan Anderson from Triple-A Memphis.

Anderson collected two hits in seven at-bats during a short stay in the big leagues back in April. He won't play much behind Yadier Molina, and he'll be sent back down once Jason LaRue (concussion) returns.

Tue, Aug 17, 2010 03:59:00 PM

Bryan Anderson - C - White Sox

Cardinals optioned C Bryan Anderson to Triple-A Louisville.

The 23-year-old was 2-for-7 (.286) with one RBI during his brief stay with the Cardinals. He'll share time with Matt Pagnozzi in the minors.

Tue, Apr 27, 2010 04:54:00 PM

Bryan Anderson - C - White Sox

Bryan Anderson will start at catcher over Yadier Molina on Tuesday.

It's about time. Yadi is a workhorse and all, but he's caught 38 innings in the past three days and could probably use some rest. Anderson, once a top prospect in the Cardinals' system, was 6-for-18 (.333) before being called up to the big leagues last week to fill in for the injured Jason LaRue.

Bryan Anderson - C - White Sox

Cardinals recalled C Bryan Anderson from Triple-A Memphis.

Anderson will take the place of the injured Jason LaRue on the 25-man roster. The 23-year-old batted .245/.293/.399 with four home runs and 11 RBI in 163 at-bats with Triple-A Memphis last season before suffering a season-ending shoulder injury in June. The former top prospect was off to a 6-for-18 (.333) start with Memphis this season.

Wed, Apr 14, 2010 01:12:00 PM

Bryan Anderson - C - White Sox

Bryan Anderson went 3-for-6 with a homer, a double and a walk Friday for Triple-A Memphis.

Anderson was a disappointment last year, and it doesn’t seem like any of the teams looking for a catcher of the future have made much of an effort to pry him away from the Cardinals. He should be available, since he’s never going to overtake Yadier Molina and he doesn’t fit the usual mold for a Tony La Russa backup, but he’ll have to step it up this season in order to amass much trade value.

Depth Charts

Batters
Pos	Role	Name
C	1	Tyler Flowers
	2	Hector Gimenez
1B	1	Paul Konerko
2B	1	Gordon Beckham D.L. Gordon Beckham (hand) started at shortstop Monday in his third rehab game with Triple-A Charlotte. Beckham played shortstop in college and as a prospect, but he has never done so in the majors. Of course, Alexei Ramirez is in the second year of a four-year, $32.5 million contract, so there would have to be an injury or a trade for him to get a look there with the big club. Still, it's an interesting development. Beckham is hitting .462 (6-for-13) with one double and two RBI over three rehab games and should be activated this weekend. May 21
	2	Tyler Greene
SS	1	Alexei Ramirez
	2	Angel Sanchez D.L. Angel Sanchez (back) is nearing a rehab assignment. Sanchez was placed on the disabled list back on April 14 with a lower back strain and is finally feeling significant improvement. He figures to need quite a few rehab games before being activated. May 14

Starting Pitcher
Pos	Role	Name
S	1	Chris Sale Sidelined Chris Sale has been scratched from Wednesday's scheduled start against the Red Sox due to mild tendinitis in his left posterior shoulder. It's obviously a tough break for Sale's fantasy owners, but the good news is that the move is viewed as precautionary and he's expected to be ready to start next Tuesday. Hector Santiago will get the ball Wednesday in Sale's place. He'll be pitching on three days' rest. May 21
	2	Jake Peavy
	3	John Danks D.L. John Danks (shoulder) will be activated from the disabled list to make his season debut Friday against the Marlins. White Sox manager Robin Ventura finally made the decision official on Wednesday night. Danks posted a 3.18 ERA during his four rehab starts, but he also had a 15/13 K/BB ratio and is still dealing with diminished velocity. Mixed leaguers should stay away for now. May 22
	4	Gavin Floyd D.L. Gavin Floyd underwent successful surgery Wednesday to repair the ulnar collateral ligament and flexor muscle in his right elbow. The surgeon told the White Sox that the operation "could not have gone better." However, since he needed two major areas operated on, the recovery is expected to be 14-19 months rather than the standard 12 months for Tommy John surgery. With that timetable, Floyd probably shouldn't be counted on for a whole lot in 2014. He'll be a free agent over the winter. May 8

	8	Leyson Septimo D.L. White Sox transferred LHP Leyson Septimo from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list. Septimo has been out all season with a left shoulder strain. He's begun a rehab assignment but now will not be eligible to return until May 22. Apr 29
