Steady in start

Anderson allowed three hits and a walk while failing to record a strikeout over 3.2 scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Mariners on Wednesday.

Analiz

Anderson last pitched Sunday, so he wasn't on full rest. The right-hander is being stretched out as a starter to fill the holes created when the Tigers shipped out Tarik Skubal and Casey Mize ahead of Monday's trade deadline, although Jackson Jobe (elbow), Jack Flaherty (forearm) and Justin Verlander (hamstring) are expected back in the coming weeks as well. Anderson has primarily worked as a reliever this season, pitching to a 4.01 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 78:25 K:BB through 67.1 innings over 41 games (three starts). While this was a fairly promising performance, Anderson won't be much of a factor in fantasy until he gets into the 70-80 pitch range and shows an ability to work at least five innings consistently to give himself a chance of collecting wins. His next start is projected to be at home versus the Guardians, but it'll take at least a couple more turns through the rotation before he's stretched out enough to contend for wins.
