Shaun Anderson signed a minor-league contract with the Angels shortly before the New Year. He spent most of 2025 at Triple-A Salt Lake, making 24 starts and pitching 116 2/3 innings with a 6.02 ERA and a 16.7% strikeout rate while generally avoiding walks and limiting home runs in the minors. The Halos used him in seven big-league appearances in 2025, when he allowed six homers and 13 runs in 11 1/3 innings. Anderson has appeared in the majors in six of the last seven years, owns a 6.39 ERA in 163 1/3 MLB innings, pitched in Korea in 2023, and will return to Salt Lake as rotation depth.
"Anderson is back in the organization after bouncing on and off the roster in 2025. He worked out of the rotation at Triple-A Salt Lake for the majority of the season. Anderson took the ball 24 times and tossed 116 2/3 innings of 6.02 ERA ball in the Pacific Coast League. He had a below-average 16.7% strikeout rate but generally avoided walks and did a decent job keeping the ball in the park in the minors."
"The Halos called upon the 31-year-old a couple times when they needed an extra arm to work in long relief. Anderson made seven appearances over scattered MLB stints. He was tagged for six homers in 11 1/3 innings, allowing 13 runs in the process. Anderson has pitched in the big leagues in six of the last seven years. He owns a 6.39 ERA over 163 1/3 frames."
