Shaun Anderson

[William Malone]

Shaun Anderson was born on October 29, 1994 in Coral Springs, Florida.

The Boston Red Sox used their third round pick on him in the 2016 MLB Draft. He was traded to the San Francisco Giants for Eduardo Núñez in 2017, and he debuted for them in 2019. Anderson made 16 starts and 12 relief appearances as a rookie, going 3-5 with a 5.44 ERA and two saves. He had a 3.52 ERA in 18 appearances as a full time reliever during the COVID shortened 2020 campaign.

San Francisco traded him to the Minnesota Twins for LaMonte Wade Jr just before spring training in 2021. Anderson pitched just 8.1 innings out of the Twins bullpen, allowing nine earned runs. He was designated for assignment in June, and claimed on waivers by the Texas Rangers. They designated Anderson for assignment days later in hopes of sneaking him through waivers, but the Baltimore Orioles put in a claim.

He pitched seven games out of the Baltimore bullpen, and then five more for the San Diego Padres before the 2021 season concluded. Anderson pitched for the Toronto Blue Jays in 2022, and was in Korea for the 2023 season. He returned stateside in 2024, pitching big league games for the Rangers and Miami Marlins. He began the 2025 season on a minor league deal with the Los Angeles Angels.
