Manager Tony La Russa said Tuesday that Anderson (hamstring) still doesn't have a timetable to return, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson has been on the 10-day IL since Aug. 29 due to a left hamstring strain, but he still hasn't returned to full health. A better timetable for the 28-year-old's return should come into focus once he's able to ramp up his activity level. Leury Garcia and Danny Mendick will continue to handle the duties at shortstop while Anderson is sidelined.

Anderson was placed on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain Wednesday, retroactive to Aug. 29.
EDGE Analysis
Anderson had dealt with recurring leg soreness recently and was forced to miss the last two games as a result, and he'll now be placed on the 10-day IL after he was diagnosed with a hamstring strain. Manager Tony La Russa initially downplayed the severity of the shortstop's injury, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him return following a brief absence. However, Leury Garcia, Danny Mendick and Romy Gonzalez are in line for playing time at shortstop in Anderson's absence.

Anderson (leg) is still dealing with soreness and is not starting Tuesday's game against the Pirates, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The infielder misses yet another game with leg soreness. Manager Tony La Russa has repeatedly downplayed the significance of Anderson's absences, but continued omissions from the lineup will add to the concern that he may be nursing a more legitimate injury. Leury Garcia is playing shortstop and batting eighth Tuesday.

White Sox manager Tony La Russa said Anderson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs due to recurring leg soreness, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
The same injury cropped up last weekend and kept Anderson on the bench for four straight games, but he returned to the lineup Wednesday and had started at shortstop in each of the White Sox's last four contests while going 5-for-17 with two doubles, four runs and two RBI. While it's less than ideal that Anderson isn't completely over the issue, La Russa suggested that the 28-year-old will likely be good to go after a day out of the lineup Sunday combined with the team's off day Monday. Fantasy managers looking to deploy Anderson during the White Sox's five-game week will want to ensure he's included in the starting nine Tuesday against the Pirates.

Anderson (leg) went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
After a four-game absence with leg soreness, the shortstop was unable to make much of an impact in his return. Anderson was red-hot before sitting out, going 19-for-49 (.388) across the previous 10 games, so he should be able to get the bat going again in the near future. He has a .300/.328/.456 slash line with 14 home runs, 17 stolen bases, 51 RBI and 78 runs scored through 470 plate appearances overall.
