Struggles in first start
Anderson (0-1) took the loss Thursday against the Guardians, allowing five runs on three hits and three walks over 1.2 innings. He didn't record a strikeout.
ANALYSIS
After working his way out of trouble in the first inning, Anderson allowed a solo home run to Will Brennan in the second before Jose Ramirez launched a grand slam with two outs in the frame. The 36-year-old Anderson opened the year in Boston's bullpen, though he was thrust back into the rotation with injuries to Brayan Bello (lat), Nick Pivetta (elbow) and Garrett Whitlock (oblique). While Thursday's outing certainly wasn't encouraging, the Red Sox may need Anderson to make at least one more start until other starters are healthy. He's currently slated for a home matchup Wednesday against the Giants.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Potential for spot start?
The Red Sox placed Nick Pivetta on the injured list with a flexor strain Tuesday, which could put Anderson in position to make a spot start Wednesday versus the Orioles.
ANALYSIS
Anderson picked up a pair of three-inning saves in his first two outings of the season, so he's certainly stretched out enough to provide some length on short notice. Boston seems likely to look elsewhere for a rotation replacement, but Anderson could stake his claim with a strong outing if presented the opportunity.

2014
2013
Anderson does not have the velocity to get away with mistakes, so when his command wavers, the results get bad in a hurry. As a member of the Blue Jays in 2020, the right-hander saw the league hit .386 off his fastball and slug .895 with 13 extra-base hits as the pitch lost one mph from 2019. The rest of his pitches performed decently, but there is no success to be found when your primary pitch is getting beaten like a drum in the USC marching band. Anderson has a good changeup and a decent cutter, so he has enough pitches to continue as a starter, although he may find more success working in a Matt Andriese-like long-relief and spot starter role if his velocity is not going to come back. At age 33, Anderson may need to embrace a new role.
