Sanderson compiled a 163-143 record with a 3.84 ERA and 1.26 WHIP in 472 appearances (407 starts) with seven teams from 1978-96. The 6-foot-5, 195-pound right-hander was a third-round draft pick by the Expos out of Vanderbilt in 1977, was promoted to the majors at age 21 after only 28 minor-league appearances and spent the first six seasons of his career in Montreal. The Cubs acquired him in a three-team trade in December 1983, and he spent the next six seasons with the North Siders.
