Dodgers News: Tyler Anderson Cares About More Than Regular Season Success

The Dodgers inked a cope with Tyler Anderson again in March and on the time he was checked out as a strong free agent signing.

He was one of many higher remaining free brokers on the time and he got here off a season cut up between the Pirates and Mariners by which he had a 4.53 ERA in 167 plus innings.

You wouldn’t have believed that if this was your first time watching Anderson pitch all the season.
The 32-year-old has had a profession 12 months and has revitalized himself in Los Angeles. He has earned probably the most wins of his profession at 15, a career-high in ERA at 2.54, second most innings pitched at 173.2, and a career-best 0.99 WHIP in 2022. Regardless of the common season numbers, the southpaw says he has greater fish to fry and hopes his success continues into October.

Tyler Anderson mentioned he had a “good” common season (at present fifth in NL in ERA), however added, “I did not need to come right here to have an excellent common season. I needed to return to have an opportunity to be within the postseason. As soon as that begins, hopefully the very best begins are forward of me.”

It’s good to see Anderson have his eyes on the prize, however to say he’s simply been “good” is an understatement.

I like how he’s centered and believes he can do higher. He got here in as somebody who would possibly piggyback some starters now and again to solidify his spot within the rotation come postseason time. So, nobody might’ve forseen such a season from Anderson, however that’s what occurs while you signal with the very best group on the planet with a wizard of a pitching coach in Mark Prior.

We look ahead to seeing Anderson on the mound for the playoffs and persevering with his “good” season.
