Anderson will skip his expected start Saturday in order to get some rest, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Brewers planned to allow Anderson to get time off by skipping his next start, in order to get rest around the All-Star break. He is coming off one of his poorer outings of the 2016 season, allowing seven runs while not even getting out of the third inning in Saturday's loss to the Dodgers. Milwaukee could start Matt Garza in Anderson's place Sunday since he would be throwing on normal rest, and then move Jimmy Nelson to Sunday's contest. They could also dip into Triple-A Colorado Springs and start Hiram Burgos in Anderson's spot.
