Scouting Report: Jack Anderson
Chicago Cubs | RP
Overall
Summary
Jack Anderson, 26-year-old right-handed pitcher for the Boston Red Sox, was recalled from Triple-A Worcester on May 8, 2026, but optioned back to the minors just one day later on May 9 when Justin Slaten returned from an oblique injury. Anderson has appeared in limited MLB action with a 3.00 ERA (3 ER in 9 IP) and demonstrates capability to pitch multiple innings as a bullpen option. In Triple-A, he has posted a 4.50 ERA through 18 innings. The quick recall-to-option sequence suggests Anderson is being used as depth/insurance for the Red Sox bullpen.
Strengths
- Capable of logging multiple innings in relief appearances
- Solid strikeout-to-walk ratio (6:2 K:BB in early MLB stint)
