The Cardinals reassigned Nick Anderson to minor-league camp this morning.

Anderson has an upward mobility clause in his contract that allows another club to add him to their 40-man roster prior to Opening Day. For now, he’ll be assigned to Memphis. #STLCards

Fantasy Impact:

Anderson’s rough spring, with eight runs in 5.1 innings, drops him from the Cardinals’ Opening Day bullpen, landing him in Triple-A Memphis unless another team claims him via his contract clause. His relief upside remains. Fantasy managers in deep leagues might stash him, hoping for a rebound and a midseason call-up elsewhere.
