Brian James Anderson is a pitcher who is currently signed to a minor-league contract 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. 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.
