The Rockies optioned Anderson to Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson will give up his spot on the 26-man active roster and in the bullpen to right-hander Victor Vodnik (personal), who was reinstated from the paternity list. After getting called up from Triple-A on Friday, Anderson made his Rockies debut in Saturday's 18-0 loss to Baltimore, serving up five earned runs on six hits over one inning of relief.

The Rockies selected Anderson's contract from Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander joined Colorado on a minor-league deal in late May and will now receive his first look in the majors in 2025. Anderson didn't pitch particularly well in 14 appearances for Albuquerque with a 5.11 ERA, 1.74 WHIP and 15:7 K:BB over 12.1 innings.

The Rockies are expected to call up Anderson from Triple-A Albuquerque, Chase Ford of MiLBCentral reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson has spent all of the 2025 season at the Triple-A level between the Cardinals and Rockies organizations, collecting a 5.79 ERA and 35:15 K:BB over 32.2 innings. The veteran right-hander is likely to operate in a middle-relief role.

Anderson signed a minor-league contract with the Rockies on Friday, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson opted out of his minor-league deal with the Cardinals and will now attempt to create a role for himself within the Rockies organization. The 34-year-old righty produced a 6.20 ERA and 1.44 WHIP in 20.1 innings at Triple-A Memphis and will likely need to improve upon those numbers before getting a shot to pitch in Colorado's bullpen.

Anderson went unclaimed after exercising his upward mobility clause and will report to Triple-A Memphis, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson did not make the Cardinals' Opening Day roster but will stick around in the organization as relief depth. He has an opt-out clause in his contract for May 30 if he's not added to the Cardinals' 26-man active roster by then.

The Cardinals reassigned Anderson to minor-league camp Monday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson struggled this spring in his bid to win an Opening Day bullpen spot, allowing eight runs over 5.1 innings. He has an upward mobility clause in his contract, allowing other teams the opportunity to add him to its 40-man roster. If that doesn't happen, Anderson will report to Triple-A Memphis.

The Cardinals signed Anderson to a minor-league contract Friday that includes an invitation to spring training.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson, 34, made 37 appearances for the Royals last season, putting up a 4.04 ERA and 29:15 K:BB over 35.2 frames. The righty reliever hasn't shown the same velocity or swing-and-miss stuff the last couple years that he did earlier in his career, but Anderson should have a decent chance to make St. Louis' Opening Day roster if he can stay healthy.

Anderson will hold a showcase for teams Jan. 23, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson has been working with the Baseball Performance Center in New Jersey on cleaning up his delivery in hopes to returning to the form which saw him post a 2.77 ERA and 136:21 K:BB over 81.1 innings from 2019-20. The 34-year-old has dealt with injuries and uneven performance since then, most recently collecting a 4.04 ERA and 29:15 K:BB across 35.2 frames with the Royals in 2024.

Anderson signed a contract with the Orioles on Tuesday, Darren Wolfson of Channel 5 Saint Paul reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson opted out of his minor-league contract with the Dodgers on Tuesday after allowing one earned run in 4.1 innings across three appearances. He didn't have to wait very long to find another opportunity, though it's unclear if he'll report straight to Baltimore or remain in Triple-A upon joining his new organization.

Anderson signed a minor-league contract with the Dodgers on Saturday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Royals designated Anderson for assignment July 13, and the reliever elected for free agency after clearing waivers. The 33-year-old logged a 4.04 ERA in 35.2 innings out of the bullpen for Kansas City and should eventually see big-league action with the Dodgers.
