Anderson (hamstring) was activated from the 10-day injured list and will start Sunday at Miami.
EDGE Analysis
The 33-year-old landed on the injured list with a strained right hamstring April 24, and he'll return to the rotation after spending a couple weeks on the shelf. Anderson posted a 2.65 ERA and 1.12 WHIP through his first three starts of the season before exiting his last start with the injury.

Anderson (hamstring) is expected to return from the injured list Sunday, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson has missed just over two weeks with a strained right hamstring. He owned a respectable 4.15 ERA and 1.27 WHIP before suffering the injury, though his 11.0 percent strikeout rate is worryingly low. He'll start Sunday against the Marlins upon his return, per Sophia Minnaert of Bally Sports Wisconsin.

Anderson (hamstring) completed a bullpen session Tuesday, but he remains without an official return timeline since he has yet to clear running tests, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The left-hander apparently isn't having any issues with the hamstring strain while throwing, but he won't be fully cleared until he passes the running tests. Anderson figures to throw another bullpen session within the next few days and could seemingly rejoin the rotation next week if he's clear of the running issues.

Anderson (hamstring) played catch Tuesday but is still expected to miss more than 10 days, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday due to a strained right hamstring, and he's expected to miss at least two turns through the rotation. Right-hander Zack Godley will start Wednesday's game against the Marlins after his contract was selected by Milwaukee on Wednesday, and Godley could remain a starter while Anderson is sidelined if he performs well against Miami. A clear timetable for Anderson's return hasn't yet been established.

Anderson was placed on the 10-day injured list with a right hamstring strain Saturday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson exited Friday's game against the Cubs due to a hamstring issue and has now been diagnosed with a strain. Manager Craig Counsell said Saturday that he isn't sure how much time Anderson will miss, and Counsell hasn't yet decided who will take Anderson's spot in the rotation, McCalvy reports. Phil Bickford was recalled from the alternate training site in a corresponding move.

Anderson left his Friday start against the Cubs due to a hamstring issue and was sent for an MRI, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson faced just four batters before exiting with what was originally called right knee discomfort. The issue is evidently in his lower hamstring rather than his need. Whether or not he'll need to head to the injured list should become clear following the MRI.

Anderson left his Friday start against the Cubs with right knee discomfort, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson faced just four batters, retiring only one, before leaving the game. The severity of his injury and his expected return date are not yet clear. Josh Lindblom replaced him in Friday's contest and could be in line to step into the rotation should Anderson require a trip to the injured list.

Anderson (2-1) allowed no earned runs on six hits and a walk while striking out three over seven innings in Saturday's win over the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
The lefty was dealing Saturday, never allowing more than one base runner in an inning until the seventh. The 33-year-old threw 61 of his 97 pitches for strikes and has allowed five earned runs in 17 innings of work. Anderson is scheduled for his next start on Friday against the Cubs.

Anderson (1-1) allowed one run on five hits and two walks over five innings Sunday, striking out one batter and earning a win over St. Louis.
EDGE Analysis
It wasn't the most impressive outing for Anderson, but with a 7-1 lead after just two innings, he didn't need to do much. The 33-year-old southpaw managed to give up just one run in the second after loading the bases with one out. After that, only one Cardinal made it beyond first base for the rest of his outing. Anderson will carry a 4.50 ERA into Saturday's home game against the Pirates.

Anderson (0-1) took the loss Monday, giving up four runs on four hits -- including three home runs -- and a walk over five innings as the Brewers fell 5-3 to the Cubs. He struck out four.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran southpaw held the Cubs in check for three frames before getting taken deep by Willson Contreras, Javier Baez and David Bote in the fourth. Anderson has had trouble keeping the ball in the yard in recent seasons when he misses his spots, posting a 1.1 HR/9 since 2018, and he tossed only 43 of 79 pitches for strikes Monday before exiting. He'll look to bounce back in his next scheduled outing Sunday in St. Louis.
