Brett Anderson - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Carlos Santana knew he had to get aggressive early against Brett Anderson

DECEMBER 16, 2021 • FOX SPORTS

Missing from NLDS roster Anderson wasn't included on Milwaukee's roster for the NLDS, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Impact It's not exactly a major surprise, as Milwaukee rolled with a six-man rotation for most of the season, and Anderson was the weakest link of that unit. Still, it was a solid season for the veteran left-hander, who had a 4.22 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 58:28 K:BB over 96 innings (24 starts). Anderson is unlikely to join the roster for any further playoff rounds unless the Brewers suffer some pitching injuries.

Opens Sunday's loss Anderson started Sunday's 10-3 loss to the Dodgers, allowing one hit in a scoreless first inning to receive a no-decision.

Impact With the NL Central already clinched, manager Craig Counsell opted to go with the veteran Anderson for one inning to begin Sunday's game after the 33-year-old tossed 61 pitches Thursday. Anderson concludes the 2021 season with a 4-9 record in 24 starts with a 4.22 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 58:28 K:BB across 96 innings.

Starting on two days' rest Brewers manager Craig Counsell said Anderson will start Sunday against the Dodgers in what amounts to a bullpen day for Milwaukee, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Anderson will be returning to the mound on just two days' rest, after he threw 61 pitches and covered five innings Thursday in St. Louis. The southpaw will likely be in store for an even lighter workload in the regular-season finale, rendering him an unappealing streaming option for fantasy managers hoping that he might be able to scoop up a win.

Takes no-decision Anderson allowed two runs on three hits and a walk while striking out two across five innings during Thursday's loss to the Cardinals. He did not factor into the decision.

Impact Making his second start since his return from the injured list with a left shoulder contusion, Anderson did his duty to keep the Brewers in the game, but his offense failed to provide enough run support. It was a decent bounce-back performance for the 33-year-old, who finishes the regular season 4-9 with a 4.26 ERA and 1.36 WHIP across 23 outings. His postseason status remains unclear at this point.

Struggles in return Anderson (4-9) allowed two earned runs on six hits and one walk through 1.2 innings, taking the loss in Wednesday's 10-2 defeat to the Cardinals. He did not record a strikeout.

Impact In his first start since suffering a left shoulder contusion on Sept. 1 against the Giants, it was Anderson's ego that was bruised Wednesday night. Although the left-hander only had two earned runs charged to his name, six Cardinals crossed home under his watch. The big blow came from Tyler O'Neill, who smacked a two-run shot off Anderson in the first. While the 33-year-old has been a serviceable pitcher for the Brewers this season, the lack of strikeouts in his game (four or fewer in 21 of 22 starts) render him a tough play in most fantasy formats.

Officially activated Anderson (shoulder) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list ahead of Wednesday's start against the Cardinals.

Impact Anderson was on the injured list since Sept. 1 due to a left shoulder contusion, but he'll rejoin the Brewers' rotation Wednesday without a rehab assignment. The southpaw has made eight appearances since the All-Star break and has recorded a 3.96 ERA and 1.24 WHIP in 36.1 innings during that time.

Confirmed as Wednesday's starter Anderson (shoulder) will be activated from the 10-day injured list to start Wednesday against the Cardinals, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact It was reported earlier in the week that Anderson was trending toward being activated for Wednesday's start, and now the club has confirmed that will indeed be the case. Anderson hasn't pitched since suffering a left shoulder contusion during his Sept. 1 outing against San Francisco, but he's slated to return to a big-league mound without going on a rehab assignment. The veteran southpaw will be resuming his campaign with a 4.18 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 56:26 K:BB through 88.1 innings.

Impact Milwaukee has yet to confirm that Anderson will take the hill that day to make his first start since Sept. 1, but the southpaw looks to be tracking toward a return after completing a bullpen session earlier in the weekend. Because he hasn't completed a simulated game or minor-league rehab outing, Anderson could be in store for a lighter workload than usual if he rejoins the rotation Wednesday. Before landing on the shelf with a bruised left shoulder, Anderson compiled a 4-8 record, 4.18 ERA and 1.34 WHIP across 21 starts.
