Anderson wore corrective eyeglasses for the first time Monday and went 2-for-5 with a three-run opposite field home run in a 6-5 loss to the Yankees, Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson downplayed the use of eyeglasses but it was good to see some life in the shortstop's bat. He hadn't homered in the previous 22 games, a stretch in which he hit .235/.267/.306 with just seven RBI. The promise hinted at last season is nowhere to be found in 2017. Perhaps the goggles will give him a better view of the increased amount of sliders Anderson's been seeing this season and spur a turnaround.

Anderson went 0-for-2 before he was ejected from Friday's 3-0 loss to the Athletics for arguing an umpire's ruling.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson chopped a ball at home plate that he thought was foul but was ruled fair and he was subsequently tagged out while standing still in the batter's box. His plea to home plate umpire Jim Wolf resulted in the first ejection of Anderson's career.

Anderson is leading off and playing shortstop Thursday against the Twins, Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson will stare down Twins left-hander Nik Turley, so Chicago moved him up in the lineup to get a platoon advantage. This makes him a more valuable start today for the likelihood of an extra plate appearance.

Anderson is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson is starting to figure things out at the plate, although he'll get a night off after 17 straight starts at shortstop. Yolmer Sanchez will slide over to fill in for him at short while Adam Frazier picks up a start at the keystone to round out the infield.

Anderson went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in Tuesday's 13-7 loss to the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Manager Rick Renteria continues to move Anderson up and down the batting order but the shortstop's been very comfortable in the seven-hole. In nine games as the seventh-place hitter, Anderson is 16-for-35 (.457, 1.358 OPS) with four homers and seven RBI. He's enjoyed a good month of May, bouncing back from and awful April when he primarily hit leadoff or second. We'd like to see Renteria let Anderson build momentum down the order and not try to force him into being something he's not yet ready to be.

Anderson will start at shortstop and lead off for the White Sox in Monday's game against the Red Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson has served as the White Sox's leadoff hitter on five other occasions in May, but had been batting out of the No. 5 spot over each of the previous five games. The shortstop's move upward in the lineup is likely just a result of Leury Garcia getting the afternoon off, so it's not expected that manager Rick Renteria has any plans to permanently stop using Anderson in the heart of the order.

Anderson went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, two RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's 8-1 victory over the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson had a rough month of April by hitting .204, but he's certainly hearing up in the month of May, and three of his five long balls have come in the season's second month. Those who stayed patient with the 23-year-old have to be excited that he's starting to turn things around, and he's been much more successful with less pressure hitting in the bottom third of Chicago's batting order.

Anderson returned to the leadoff spot Friday and went 0-for-5 with two strikeouts in the White Sox's 2-1 win over the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

With Leury Garica, Chicago's latest leadoff hitter, out of the starting lineup due to an elbow bruise, manager Rick Renteria couldn't resist moving a hot-hitting Anderson back to the top of the order. Anderson entered Friday's game riding a seven-game hitting streak, all of which came with him batting in the bottom third of the order, mostly in the seven-hole. It was the first prolonged stretch of success for the 23-year-old shortstop this season, and we're a bit flummoxed why Renteria would mess with that. At any rate, Garcia entered Friday's game as a pinch runner and played an inning in center field, so perhaps the batting order will be restored Saturday.

Anderson went 3-for-4 with a home run, a double and two runs scored in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson's first April in the majors didn't go so well, but he's turned a corner, having hit safely in seven straight games. That includes multiple hits in the last four and extra-base hits in the last three. Perhaps removing the pressure of batting at the top of the order has helped fuel his turnaround. Anderson has taken a shine to hitting out of the seven-hole, where he's 11-for-23 with just four strikeouts in six games.

Anderson returned to the lineup Tuesday after missing four games and went 2-for-4 with a home run in a 7-6 extra-inning loss to the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

Anderson was primed to be the hero when his third homer of the season in the top of 11th gave the White Sox the lead in extras, but it wasn't meant to be. Prior to being away from the team over the weekend, Anderson had been in and out of the lineup and dropped from the top of the batting order to the seven-hole. Through it all, the struggling young shortstop has hit in five straight contests with multiple hits in three of them. There are still holes in his plate approach, but there are hopeful signs. During Anderson's five-game hit streak, which has pushed his average to .230, he's struck out just three times in 21 at-bats, well below his 23.5 strikeout percentage for the season.
