Brian James Anderson (born April 26, 1972 in Portsmouth, Virginia) is a former pitcher who most recently played in the minor leagues with the Texas Rangers. He previously played for the Kansas City Royals, California Angels, Cleveland Indians, and Arizona Diamondbacks, posting a career ERA of 4.74. He is also noted for having a great pickoff move. Anderson attended Wright State University. He was also the second pick in the 1997 MLB Expansion Draft.
At Geneva High School in Geneva, Ohio, Brian Anderson was a four-year letterman in baseball, a three-year letterman in golf, and a two-year letterman in basketball.
Anderson's 2005 season ended prematurely when he tore an elbow ligament, necessitating Tommy John surgery. Anderson attempted a comeback in 2006 with the Texas Rangers, but while rehabbing his surgically repaired elbow, he re-injured it, requiring him to undergo a second surgery if he was to resume his pitching career.
In the 2007 season, Anderson occasionally filled in as a broadcaster for the Cleveland Indians on SportsTime Ohio, as well as doing several spring training games and a weekly highlight show.[1]
