The New York Mets have claimed right-handed reliever Jack Anderson off waivers from the Minnesota Twins, according to MLB.com's Anthony DiComo. Minnesota originally claimed the 26-year-old pitcher off waivers from the Boston Red Sox in July. Anderson made just four major league appearances for the Twins during his brief tenure with the organization, primarily serving as bullpen depth.
