Anderson allowed four hits and one walk while striking out four across seven scoreless innings Thursday against the Phillies. He did not factor into the decision.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson kept pace with his counterpart Zack Wheeler by matching his longest start of the season and turning in his third scoreless effort. He didn't post gaudy strikeout or swinging strike numbers but limited the Phillies to just one extra-base hit. The strong effort lowered his ERA to 3.26 for the season, which he's supplemented with a 69:26 K:BB across 66.1 frames.

Anderson (4-3) took the loss Friday as Atlanta fell 9-5 to the Dodgers, giving up four runs on one hit and three walks over 4.1 innings. He struck out six.
EDGE Analysis
The young right-hander blanked Los Angeles for four innings before things unraveled in the fifth, as Anderson and the Atlanta bullpen issued five of their eight free passes on the night as part of an eight-run frame. It's the second straight outing in which he's failed to complete five innings, and Anderson will carry a 3.64 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 65:25 K:BB through 59.1 IP into his next start.

Anderson is no longer scheduled to start Thursday's series finale against the Nationals and will instead take the hill for Friday's series opener versus the Dodgers, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson will return to the mound on five days' rest after he labored through four innings in his most recent start May 29 against the Mets. He gave up a season-high-tying four runs on seven hits -- including two home runs -- and a walk while striking out six to take his second loss of the season. Atlanta will hope that Anderson can get back on track with the extra day of rest, though the 23-year-old will draw a tougher matchup while he moves back a day in the schedule.

Anderson won't start as scheduled Friday against the Mets since the game was postponed due to inclement weather, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear when the contest will be made up, though it won't occur via doubleheader this weekend. Anderson will take the mound Saturday in New York as Atlanta pushes back each of their starting pitchers.

Anderson (4-1) picked up the win Friday, giving up six hits over six scoreless innings in a 20-1 rout of the Pirates. He struck out six without walking a batter.
EDGE Analysis
Atlanta piled up seven homers and 14 total extra-base hits as they gave Anderson a month's worth of run support in one evening. The right-hander delivered his third straight quality start and fifth of the season, and he'll take a 2.82 ERA and 53:21 K:BB through 51 innings into his next outing.

Anderson (3-1) earned the win Saturday against the Brewers after allowing one run on two hits and four walks while fanning four across six innings.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson had a few command issues that resulted in four walks -- tying his season-high mark --but still limited the damage to just one run allowed and he's now allowed one or fewer runs in three of his last five appearances. The right-hander owns a 4.50 ERA and will try to build off this performance when he takes the ball next week at home against the Pirates.

Anderson (2-1) allowed four runs on six hits and two walks over four innings Sunday, striking out five and taking the loss against Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson really never got into a groove Sunday as he allowed runs in each of the second, third and fourth innings. It was his shortest outing of the year and first time allowing a run since April 15. The 23-year-old righty is now sporting a 3.27 ERA and 36:14 K:BB. He's expected to face the Phillies at home next weekend.

Anderson (2-0) picked up the win in Tuesday's 6-0 victory over the Cubs, allowing one hit and one walk over seven scoreless innings while striking out eight.
EDGE Analysis
The young right-hander is locked in right now, tossing 13.2 shutout innings over his last two starts to collect his first two wins of the year, Anderson also set a new season high with his eight punchouts Tuesday, making his exit after throwing 90 pitches (59 strikes). He'll take a 2.48 ERA and 31:12 K:BB through 29 innings into his next outing, likely to come May 4 on the road against the Nationals.

Anderson (1-0) allowed four hits and four walks while striking out four across 6.2 scoreless innings to earn the win Wednesday against the Yankees.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson walked two batters in the first three innings but settled in to work effectively through the Yankees lineup. This was his longest outing of the season and the first time he's completed at least six innings. It's been an inconsistent start to the campaign for Anderson -- he entered the game having allowed seven earned runs across his last 10.1 innings -- though he's still managed to maintain a 3.27 ERA despite posting only a 23:11 K:BB across his first 22 frames. Anderson projects to take his next turn through the rotation Tuesday against Chicago.
