EDGE Analysis
Anderson's sixth long ball of the season came with two outs in the sixth inning and allowed the Marlins to overcome a 1-0 deficit. The third baseman will carry a four-game hitting streak into Sunday's series finale and will bat fifth for Miami.

Anderson is out of the lineup Friday against the Rockies, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Anderson isn't starting Monday's game against the Mets, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson snapped a six-game hit streak in Sunday's loss to the Yankees, and he'll retreat to the bench for the first time since he returned from the injured list July 24. Isan Diaz will start at the hot corner and bat fifth.

Anderson went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk and a stolen base in Tuesday's 7-3 win over the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson missed two months with a dislocated left shoulder but returned to action over the weekend, and he's quickly found his power stroke with long balls in Sunday's and Tuesday's contests. The 28-year-old had a .687 OPS in 35 games prior to the injury, but he's 5-for-12 with two homers, two walks and an additional run in three games since being activated from the injured list Saturday.

Anderson (shoulder) will be reinstated from the 60-day injured list before Saturday's game against the Padres, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
The third baseman, having been sidelined since May 24 with a dislocated left shoulder, returns to the Marlins on his first day of eligibility. Before the injury, Anderson hit .250 with three home runs, 11 RBI and 12 walks in 36 games. The Marlins have yet to announce whom they're removing from the 40-man roster to clear a space for Anderson.

Anderson (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday, Paul Casella of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson has been out since late May with a left shoulder subluxation. The long absence means he's in line for a fairly lengthy rehab assignment, especially as he's been placed on the 60-day injured list and is ineligible to return before July 25.

Anderson's injured left shoulder has responded well to baseball activities, but the Marlins have yet to set a date for him to begin a rehab assignment, MLB.com reports. "He's been hitting on the field, he's been taking ground balls," manager Don Mattingly said Saturday, when asked about Anderson. "He's actually swinging right at this very second. And we haven't went backwards."
EDGE Analysis
Mattingly added that he believes Anderson will have a chance to return from the 60-day injured list when first eligible July 25, but that will hinge on the third baseman completing a multi-game rehab assignment without issue. Before being shut down in late May with a left shoulder subluxation, Anderson was batting .250 with three home runs and three stolen bases through 36 games.

Anderson (shoulder) has been participating in defensive drills and taking soft toss, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson taking soft is the first word of the third baseman taking swings since landing on the injured list with left shoulder subluxation in late May. Anderson won't be eligible to come off the 60-day IL until July 27, but he could potentially go on a rehab assignment earlier in July.

Anderson (shoulder) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Monday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
The move comes shortly after it was revealed the 28-year-old has yet to resume hitting as previously expected, and he now won't be able to be activated until at least late July. Anderson landed on the shelf May 25 with a left shoulder subluxation and will end up missing two months dues to the injury, at minimum. Isan Diaz should continue operating as Miami's third baseman in the meantime.

Anderson (shoulder) has yet to begin hitting, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reports from early last week indicated that Anderson was on the verge of starting his hitting progression, but he's still yet to take that step. He was expected to miss several weeks when he landed on the injured list with a left shoulder subluxation in late May, but it remains unclear exactly when the Marlins expect him back.
