Anderson was handed a three-game suspension for making contact with an umpire during Monday's game against the Tigers. He is appealing the ban and remains in the lineup Wednesday versus the Reds, Jesse Rogers of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson can continue to play until the appeal is heard and decided upon, so he's still starting at shortstop and batting leadoff Wednesday. The suspension apparently won't have an impact on the playoffs, so there's no concern about the ban carrying over from the regular season. The 28-year-old may end up serving the suspension in 2022 if the appeal isn't heard ahead of the final game of the regular season Sunday.
