Dean Anna: Calls end to career
Anna didn't report to the Twins' spring training complex Monday and informed the organization that he intends to retire, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.
After signing a minor-league contract with the Twins in December, Anna had been scheduled to join the club as a non-roster invitee at spring training. While Anna was never likely to seriously contend for an Opening Day gig with the Twins, it was expected that he would play a key role in the infield for Triple-A Rochester this season. The prospect of another year on the farm apparently wasn't too appealing to the 32-year-old, who elected to call an end to a career that included brief stints in the majors with the Yankees and Cardinals in 2014 and 2015, respectively.

Twins' Dean Anna: Signs with Twins
Anna reached a minor-league agreement with Minnesota on Wednesday, Brandon Warne of Zone Coverage reports.
Anna has spent the past three seasons at the Triple-A level and has only appeared in 13 big-league games in his professional career. The 32-year-old slashed .271/.367/.341 with one home run, 34 RBI and nine stolen bases for Lehigh Valley in the Phillies' system this past year, and will provide middle-infield depth for the Twins moving forward.

Phillies' Dean Anna: Dealt to Phillies
Anna was traded to Philadelphia on Wednesday, Chris Cotillo of SB Nation reports.
Anna appeared in 114 games at the Triple-A level last season for Omaha within the Royals' system, slashing .285/.364/.376 with five home runs and 33 RBI. He will likely report to Triple-A Lehigh Valley for the start of the 2018 campaign.

White Sox's Dean Anna: Inks deal with White Sox
Anna signed a minor-league contract with the White Sox on Monday, according to his personal Twitter account.
For the second season in a row, the 31-year-old utility man spent all year in the minors, hitting .285/.364/.376 across 112 games for Triple-A Omaha. Anna hasn't made it back to the majors since he appeared one game for the Cardinals back in 2015; he owns a paltry .130/.192/.302 career slash-line across 13 major-league games. He'll be viewed as an organizational depth piece in 2018.

Royals' Dean Anna: Heads to Kansas City
Anna signed a minor league contract with the Royals on Monday.
Anna batted .266 in 383 plate appearances over 106 games with Triple-A Memphis in the Cardinals system last season. He has made just 26 career plate appearances in the majors, so he isn't a likely candidate for a spot in Kansas City. Expect him to serve as organizational depth.

Cardinals' Dean Anna: Designated for assignment
Anna was designated for assignment by the Cardinals on Sunday.
Anna was serving as organizational depth at the Triple-A level, but the team needed his 40-man roster spot to execute multiple activations Sunday morning. He hasn't seen much action in the majors over the past few seasons anyway, and he posted a .685 OPS for the Redbirds over 106 games in 2016.

Cardinals' Dean Anna: Optioned to minors
Anna was assigned to Triple-A Memphis on Sunday, MLB.com reports.
Anna was a long shot to make the majors out of spring training, and the Cardinals' signing of Ruben Tejada on Saturday only further complicated matters for the 29-year-old. He'll likely spend the bulk of the campaign at Memphis, and doesn't look to be much more than organizational depth for the Cardinals.

Cardinals' Dean Anna: Records hit and RBI
Anna went 1-2 with an RBI in Wednesday's spring training matchup with Atlanta.
Anna has had 10 at-bats this spring, scoring four runs and stealing two bases. The 29-year-old shortstop only has 23 career at-bats in the majors, compiling a .136 average during that time. Seeing as how the Cardinals have three shortstops ahead of Anna on their depth chart, he will likely start the 2016 season at Triple-A Memphis where he left off last season.
