Latest News
| Chris Nelson added to 25-man roster |
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com (5/19/13) The Angels added infielder Chris Nelson to the 25-man roster Sunday and optioned Luis Jimenez to Triple-A Salt Lake, MLB.com reports.
Nelson went 8 for 36 (.222) with two doubles in his stint with the Yankees, which designated him for assignment last week.

| Angels claim Chris Nelson |
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com (5/18/13) The Angels claimed third baseman Chris Nelson off waivers from the Yankees and designated Scott Cousins for assignment in the corresponding move.
Nelson went 8 for 36 (.222) with two doubles in his stint with the Yankees.

| Yankees designate Chris Nelson for assignment |
by Jack Moore | CBSSports.com (5/15/13) The Yankees have designated third baseman Chris Nelson for assignment, the club announced Wednesday.
Nelson went 8 for 36 (.222) with two doubles in his stint with the Yankees. The club has called up David Adams, who couldn't be recalled until May 15 due to league rules, to replace him. Nelson's Yankees career was destined to be short-lived unless he knocked the cover off the ball.

| Yankees give Chris Nelson first start |
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com (5/4/13) Yankees newly acquired third baseman will make his debut with his new team Saturday against the Athletics. Manager Joe Girardi gave Nelson the start at third and placed him sixth in the batting order in front of Lyle Overbay.
Nelson, who was acquired after being designated for assignment by the Rockies, replaces Jayson Nix, who had been seeing regular time at third with Kevin Youkilis injured.
Nelson was hitting .242 with the Rockies.

| Chris Nelson catches on quickly |
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com (5/1/13) Just a few days after he was designated for assignment, the Yankees reached an agreement with the Rockies to acquire third baseman Chris Nelson. The Yankees gave up cash considerations and a player to be named later.
Nelson was batted just .242 with a .600 on-base plus slugging percentage in 71 plate appearances with the Rockies, but he did put up an .810 OPS last season. It is unknown how the Yankees will use Nelson, but their infielders have struggled to hit, with the exception of second baseman Robinson Cano. Nelson could find playing time around the diamond.

| Chris Nelson was the Rockies' primary third baseman at the start of last season and at the end, but it was a tumultuous ride in between. He had separate disabled list stints for a wrist injury and an irregular heartbeat, and he also spent time filling in as the regular second baseman, while Marco Scutaro subbed for an injured Troy Tulowitzki. The opportunities allowed Nelson to accumulate a career-high 377 plate appearances, and he made good use of them, hitting .301 on the season. With only nine home runs, Nelson didn't offer much power, though, and a .377 BABIP helped to keep his average high, even though he struck out 84 times in 345 at-bats. Nelson will have a chance to open as the Rockies' starting third baseman again this year, but Jordan Pacheco and Ryan Wheeler will provide competition. Even if Nelson earns regular playing time, owners should expect a lower batting average but not necessarily more power. Despite last season's success, Nelson can go undrafted outside of NL-only leagues. (Updated 1/10/13) |
