The Marlins selected Anderson's contract from Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday.

The right-hander remained in the organization after being designated for assignment by Miami in August, and he'll now receive another look in the big leagues. Anderson has made five appearances with the Marlins and Rangers this season and has a 9.64 ERA, 2.29 WHIP and 9:1 K:BB over 14 innings.

The Cubs placed Wicks on the 15-day injured list Friday with a right oblique strain, Ryan Herrera of AllCHGO.com reports.

It's the same injury which sidelined Wicks for more than two months before he returned at the beginning of September. He posted a 7.50 ERA and 10:10 K:BB over four starts since his activation, so it's possible the lefty was never fully healthy. Wicks finishes the season having been limited to just 46 innings due to injury, holding a 5.48 ERA and 42:20 K:BB.

The Nationals activated Williams (elbow) from the 60-day injured list Friday, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

Williams will rejoin the Nationals' rotation Friday with a start against the Cubs after missing nearly four months of action with a right flexor strain. He threw 73 pitches in his most recent rehab start, so Williams should be only slightly limited Friday from a workload perspective. The veteran righty collected a nifty 2.22 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 47:16 K:BB across 56.2 innings before getting hurt.

Gray said he pitched through some "lingering" soreness during Wednesday's start against the Pirates, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Gray didn't divulge any specifics regarding where he's feeling sore, only saying that he "didn't feel great in general, physically" due to "some lingering things just kind of going on through the week." The righty struck out eight and was charged with four runs over 5.2 innings versus the Pirates in Wednesday's outing. Gray will throw a bullpen session this weekend before it's determined whether he'll make one more start or shut things down. If he does make one final start, it's tentatively lined up to come at Coors Field.

Assad did not factor into the decision in a win over the Nationals on Thursday, allowing three runs on seven hits and one walk over five innings. He struck out five.

The Nationals got to Assad early, tagging the right-hander for one run in the opening frame and two more in the third after he allowed hits to three of the first five batters he faced in the inning. The 27-year-old would still manage to get through five frames for the sixth consecutive outing, though he's now winless over his last three starts. Assad has also posted five strikeouts in each of his last three starts, while Thursday's start marked the first time in his last four outings that he didn't walk multiple batters.

Corbin did not factor into the decision in a loss to the Cubs on Thursday, allowing five runs on eight hits and one walk over 4.1 innings while striking out four.

Corbin struggled against the Cubs' lineup, giving up one run on three singles in the opening frame before coughing up a two-run homer in the third. He was later relieved by Derek Law with one out in the fifth after Corbin allowed the first three batters to reach. The veteran lefty did generate 12 swings and misses on the night, but the outing marked the first time he's failed to make it through five innings since Aug. 16 against the Phillies, a span of five starts. He carries a 6.14 ERA in September through four outings to go along with a strong 23:5 K:BB.

Fedde allowed one run on four hits and one walk while striking out three batters over six innings in a no-decision against Pittsburgh on Thursday.

Fedde surrendered a fourth-inning run but otherwise kept the Pirates off the scoreboard. The right-hander finished with his first quality start since Aug. 25 and just his second over his past 10 outings. Fedde's numbers haven't been overwhelming, but his 3.38 season ERA is on pace to easily be the best of his seven-year career.

Cabrera (4-8) took the loss Thursday, allowing seven runs on four hits and five walks over 2.1 innings against the Dodgers. He struck out three.

Cabrera allowed single runs in each of the first two innings, then lost his control in the third, tossing just 10 of 26 pitches for strikes while allowing a single, three walks and hitting a batter prior to being pulled with one out in the inning. Five total runs crossed in the frame, all charged to Cabrera. He entered the game having given up just one earned run over his previous three starts but ran into a buzzsaw Thursday. Cabrera is tentatively slated to make one more start this season, set to take place when the Marlins travel to Minnesota to take on the Twins.

Flaherty (13-7) earned the win Thursday, allowing three runs on five hits and two walks over six innings against the Marlins. He struck out five.

Flaherty cruised to the victory Thursday, posting a quality start as he was provided 14 runs of support prior to his removal from the game. It was a nice rebound for Flaherty, who was pulled following a season-low three frames in his last start, the only time he's failed to reach five innings across 27 outings this season. Flaherty looks to be in line to make one more start this season, tentatively scheduled to take place against the Padres.

Myers (8-6) took the loss against Arizona on Thursday, allowing three runs (one earned) on four hits and three walks while striking out five batters over four innings.

Only one of the runs Myers allowed was earned, but he wasn't sharp. The right-hander needed 93 pitches to get through four frames, and only 52 of those offerings were strikes. The outing was Myers' shortest since he went four frames against St. Louis on Aug. 21, and the loss was his first since Aug. 4 versus Washington.
