Designated for assignment The Rangers designated Anderson for assignment Thursday.

Impact Anderson will end up as the odd man out of a roster spot to make room for Kumar Rocker, who was promoted for his MLB debut Thursday. The 36-year-old Anderson owns a 5.40 ERA and 1.30 WHIP across 58.1 innings in the majors this season, though another team in need of long-relief help may be interested in adding him to their bullpen for the final few weeks of the year.

Impact Anderson was let go by the Red Sox on Thursday and opted for free agency rather than accept an assignment to the minors. The 36-year-old right-hander has worked primarily as a reliever in 2024, accruing a 4.85 ERA and collecting three saves over 52 frames. He figures to report to Triple-A Round Rock and serve as organizational depth with his new club.

Impact The veteran right-hander was tagged for nine runs (three earned) in his last two appearances and has now lost his place on the MLB roster. Anderson tallied three saves for Boston this season, but all were of the three-inning variety as he pitched almost exclusively in lower-leverage spots. He totaled a 4.85 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 35:19 K:BB over 52 innings.

Registers three-inning save Anderson earned a save against Oakland on Thursday, allowing two hits and striking out five batters over three scoreless innings.

Impact After Tanner Houck tossed six scoreless frames, Anderson completed the shutout with three scoreless innings of his own. He struck out five in the impressive outing and threw 28 of 39 pitches for strikes. The save was the third of the season for the righty reliever, all of which have been three frames in length. From a fantasy perspective, there's no reason for managers chasing saves to take a look at Anderson given his middle-relief role and consequent unpredictability of save opportunities.

Scratched Sunday Anderson is no longer scheduled to start Sunday against the Twins, Luke Zahlmann of The Denver Gazettereports.

Impact The right-hander was penciled in to start the final game of the season for Colorado, but lefty reliever Brent Suter will instead open the contest. It's unclear if Anderson suffered some sort of injury or if manager Bud Black simply decided to go in a different direction. The 35-year-old has a 5.42 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 64:33 K:BB over 86.1 innings this year and will be a free agent this offseason.

Impact Anderson made his first appearance of the season May 3 out of the Tampa Bay bullpen, and he joined the Colorado rotation a couple weeks later after being claimed off waivers. It took the 35-year-old righty 17 starts and 86.1 innings to finally secure his first win of the season, and he waited until the final week to do so. Anderson has pitched well since coming off the IL in early September, posting a 3.86 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 20:13 K:BB through 25.2 frames, and his worst outing during the month actually came on the road in San Francisco. He should get a chance to double his win total in the Rockies' finale, a home tilt against the Twins on Oct. 1.

Remains winless Anderson (0-6) took the loss Wednesday as the Rockies fell 3-2 to the Padres, giving up three runs (two earned) on five hits and two walks over 6.1 innings. He struck out three.

Impact The veteran right-hander has now made 16 starts in 2023, plus two relief appearances, and he's still looking for his first win. Anderson has at least given the Rockies two straight quality starts, and over 20.2 innings since coming off the IL in early September, he's managed a 4.80 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 16:11 K:BB. With Colorado playing seven games in six days during the final week of the season, Anderson could take the mound twice more against the Dodgers and Twins, but both starts would come at Coors Field.
