The Rangers designated Anderson for assignment Thursday. 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 in Seattle. 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, though he won't be playoff eligible with a new organization.

The Rangers selected Anderson's contract from Triple-A Round Rock on Saturday. Anderson signed a minor-league contract with the Rangers on Aug. 5, and although he has since allowed nine earned runs in just 11.2 innings, he'll join the big-league squad to provide Texas with a multi-inning relief option. Dane Dunning was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Anderson signed a minor-league contract with the Rangers on Monday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports. 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.

The veteran swingman holds a 4.85 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 35:19 K:BB over 52 innings in 2024.
