Anderson signed a minor-league contract with the Angels on Friday.
Anderson elected to test free agency after clearing waivers Thursday, but he'll quickly reunite with the Angels after just a day on the open market. The 30-year-old righty owns an unsightly 10.32 ERA and 2.03 WHIP through 11.1 innings in the majors and isn't likely to make an impact with the big club if he makes it back to Anaheim before the season ends.

Shaun Anderson: Opts for free agency
Rotowire
Anderson cleared waivers Thursday and elected free agency.
Anderson lost his spot in the Angels' bullpen after giving up four earned runs in just two-thirds of an inning Monday against the Dodgers, inflating his ERA to 10.32 through 11.1 frames. Now a free agent, the 30-year-old right-hander will most likely have to settle for a minor-league deal to secure another job.

Angels' Shaun Anderson: Called up by Halos
Rotowire
The Angels selected Anderson's contract from Triple-A Salt Lake on Monday.
Anderson was DFA'd by the Angels in mid-June but opted to stick around on a minor-league deal, and he has posted a 3.60 ERA, 0.80 WHIP and 13:0 K:BB in 20 innings over his last three starts in with Salt Lake. Jack Kochanowicz -- who started against the Tigers on Sunday -- was optioned to Triple-A, and while Anderson has started in minor-league games this season, he'll likely operate out of the bullpen as a multi-inning reliever, per Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register.

Rotowire
Anderson cleared waivers Saturday and elected free agency.
The Angels dumped Anderson off their 40-man roster Friday after he turned in a 7.59 ERA and 1.78 WHIP over 10.2 innings with the big-league club. The 30-year-old righty will now look to free agency for his next opportunity, but with a career 6.20 ERA, he'll almost certainly have to settle for a minor-league deal.
Anderson is expected to be removed from the active roster Friday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
He'll yield his spot on the 26-man roster to Sam Bachman. In six appearances with the Halos, Anderson logged a 7.59 ERA with a 10:3 K:BB over 10.2 innings.

Rotowire
Anderson re-signed Wednesday with the Angels on a minor-league contract.
After the Angels designated him for assignment last weekend, Anderson elected free agency upon clearing waivers.

Over his five appearances out of the Angels bullpen, Anderson turned in a 6.30 ERA, 1.70 WHIP and 10:3 K:BB in 10 innings.

The Angels selected Anderson's contract from Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday.
Anderson will get his first look in the big leagues this season after turning in a 5.06 ERA and 1.56 WHIP across 37.1 innings in the minors. With Ryan Johnson being sent down to High-A Tri-City to make room on the active roster, it's reasonable to believe Anderson will work out of the bullpen while with the Angels, despite working exclusively as a starter this year.
