Anderson (3-5) surrendered six runs on 11 hits and a pair of walks over five innings against the visiting Mariners on Tuesday. He struck out three.
Last year, Anderson surprisingly was better at Coors Field (3.00 ERA) than on the road (4.71 ERA), but he hasn't been able to carry that success into his sophomore campaign. Anderson's five home starts have seen him produce a 6.26 ERA and 1.57 WHIP, which is far more typical of what we expect from Colorado pitchers. He hasn't been much better on the road, either. That said, this start aside, Anderson's been missing more bats than he did last year, and his velocity's up. It may still be worth using him selectively on the road in deeper formats.
