The Chicago White Sox have designated right-handed reliever Justin Anderson for assignment and called up infield prospect Chase Meidroth for his MLB debut. Anderson, who had a 4.39 ERA over 53 1/3 innings in 2024, struggled with command throughout his career, recording a 14.8% walk rate in the majors. Injuries, including Tommy John surgery, significantly impacted his recent performance. Despite this, Anderson's strong strikeout capability may attract interest from other teams. Meanwhile, the White Sox shifted their roster to incorporate Meidroth as they continue to manage team performance.
"Anderson, 32, spent the majority of the 2024 season in the ChiSox bullpen, picking up 53 1/3 innings of relief action en route to a 4.39 ERA."
"Command has never been a strong point for the 6'3", 230-pound Anderson. He's walked 14.8% of his opponents in parts of three big league seasons."
