Cody Anderson (SP, CLE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 18% of Fleaflicker Leagues

ANALYSIS: Someone get Cody Anderson some butter because he's on a roll (throws tomato). The Indians could not be more ecstatic with the results from Anderson; a 0.76/0.63 pitching line with a 10/1 K/BB ratio over 23.2 innings, which included a perfect game bid through six at Tampa.

Before getting called up Anderson was effective in both AA and AAA (13 GS, 2.03 ERA). This was a noticeable improvement from his previous two seasons, with the main improvement being Anderson limiting the long balls (17 in 2014, 3 this season). Anderson does not have a dominating arsenal but relies primarily on his fourseam fastball and change while mixing in a cutter.  While Anderson doesn't blow batters away, he's shown the qualities of a professional pitcher who can pound the zone and avoid free passes (1.05 WHIP over 90 innings in 2015).

The .181 BABIP and 95.6 LOB% mixed with batters making hard contact 26% of the time are signs that regression are on the horizon. However the advanced stats don't think the regression will be that far from what we're seeing (2.92 FIP). All things considered, an ERA around 3.40 seems reasonable for Anderson ROS, making Anderson a quality play for deep leagues.
