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.

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
The Marlins recalled Anderson from Triple-A Jacksonville ahead of his start Saturday against the Mariners.
He'll be joining the rotation as a replacement for Jesus Luzardo (back), who was initially slated to start Saturday before being scratched and placed on the 15-day injured list. Luzardo is set to miss at least two turns through the rotation, but Anderson may need to pitch effectively Saturday to earn himself any starts beyond that. Since being acquired from the Rangers on May 30, the 29-year-old righty has previously made one spot start for Miami, giving up seven runs (four earned) on nine hits in two innings in a June 14 loss to the Nationals.
