Rest-of-Season Projections
2021 Fantasy Outlook
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. Read Past Outlooks

Pays for mistake Monday
Anderson (0-2) took the loss Monday in Monday's 2-0 defeat at the hands of the Giants, allowing two runs on five hits and no walks over four innings. He struck out five.
ANALYSIS
The right-hander exited after throwing 70 pitches (47 strikes), but there was only one offering Anderson would like to have back -- a third-inning curveball he left over the plate that Brandon Belt deposited in the seats in right field for the game's only offense. Anderson has a 4.15 ERA and 11:5 K:BB through 13 innings, but he'll be a very risky fantasy option in his next outing, slated for Sunday against the Rockies in Coors Field.

2013
Anderson started 112 games for the Brewers over the last four seasons, but the team decided it would rather part ways than pay him the $8.5 million on his contract and traded him to the Blue Jays over the offseason. Anderson shined in 2017 and posted a respectable 3.83 ERA during his time in Milwaukee, but a 4.70 FIP over that span suggests he got a bit lucky, and he also served up home runs at a high clip (1.6 HR/9) the last two years and did not pitch in any of the 11 postseason games the Brewers played in 2018 and 2019. Anderson will now pitch for a third team, and given his salary and the Blue Jays' lack of starting pitching options he figures to open the season at or near the top of the Blue Jays' rotation. Anderson has been better than league average in both ERA and WHIP three years running, but that streak could be in danger heading to a home park where left-handers piled up long balls a season ago.
