From Rotoworld: Anderson held the Pirates to two runs and two hits over six innings in a win Thursday. Anderson has a 1.33 ERA while turning in six straight quality starts. He’s had a heck of a season for a guy the Brewers were probably going to leave out of the Opening Day rotation if not for an injury to Matt Garza.
Reds manager Bryan Price confirmed Saturday that Castillo will remain in the club’s starting rotation. Even with the return of Homer Bailey and Brandon Finnegan, the Reds will leave their prized pitching prospect in the rotation after he pitched well in Friday’s debut against the Nationals.
