Nick Anderson allowed one run on one hit over the 1/3 of an inning during Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Dodgers in Game 6 of the World Series.
Fantasy Impact
Anderson picked up the loss after surrendering two runs in the sixth inning. Austin Barnes scored on a wild pitch while Mookie Betts plated a run on a fielder's choice. Anderson entered the game despite Rays' starter Blake Snell dominating the Dodgers through most of it. The 30-year-old reliever struggled in the 2020 postseason, owning a 5.52 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and nine strikeouts over 14 2/3 innings.
Nick Anderson allowed one run on one hit while striking out none over one 1/3 scoreless inning to earn the loss during Thursday's Game 5 of the ALCS.
Fantasy Impact
Anderson yielded a solo shot to Carlos Correa in the bottom of the ninth ending the game. He picked up his first loss of the postseason. Despite surrendering the game-winning homer to Correa, Anderson has produced this postseason. The 30-year-old reliever owns a 3.72 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and six strikeouts over nine 2/3 innings.
Nick Anderson allowed one run on three hits and two walks while striking out none to earn the save during Monday's 4-2 win over the Astros in Game 2 of the ALCS.
Fantasy Impact
Anderson entered the game in the ninth inning and yielded one run and three hits over one inning of work. He escaped a bases loaded jam by getting Alex Bregman to ground into a double play to notch his first career postseason save. Anderson owns a 3.24 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and six strikeouts over eight 1/3 innings during the 2020 post season.
Nick Anderson needed just six pitches to throw a scoreless ninth inning and preserve the Rays' 8-2 win over the Blue Jays on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
The Rays are advancing to the ALDS with their two-game sweep of the Jays. Anderson was also used in Game 1 and gave up a run, but he'll be an important part of Tampa Bay's pitching plans against the Yankees. Anderson allowed just one run in 16 1/3 innings during the regular season.
Nick Anderson struck out one in a scoreless ninth to earn his sixth save of the season on Monday against the Mets.
Fantasy Impact
Anderson slammed the door on a 2-1 victory. The 30-year-old has been downright phenomenal this year, allowing just one run over 15 innings pitched. He has a 25/2 K/BB ratio during that time to go along with six saves and six holds. He's a very valuable asset in leagues that count both saves and holds.
