63 Drew Anderson RP

Anderson was optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Wednesday.

Anderson is likely unavailable for a few days after tossing four innings out of the bullpen in Tuesday's loss, so the Phillies opted to swap him out for a fresh bullpen arm (Enyel De Los Santos). In two appearances for the big club, Anderson compiled a 7.50 ERA, 2.00 WHIP and 6:6 K:BB through six innings.

Anderson was called up by the Phillies on Saturday.

Anderson is involved in his third transaction of the week after spending a day on the big-league roster on Monday. He'll likely fill a low-leverage role in the Phillies' bullpen.

Anderson was optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday.

Anderson's stay on the big-league roster lasts just a single day. He didn't do anything wrong in his lone appearance, striking out two and walking two in two scoreless innings, but the Phillies need fresh arms in the bullpen after back-to-back extra-innings contests. Jerad Eickhoff was recalled in a corresponding move.

Anderson was promoted from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Monday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

Anderson will take the place of David Robertson (elbow), who was sent to the injured list in a corresponding move. The right-hander has primarily worked as a starter throughout his career and should offer length out of the Phillies' bullpen during his time with the big club.

Anderson was optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Thursday, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Anderson has a poor 7.80 ERA in 15 career major-league innings, though he looked quite good in camp, allowing just a single run in 12.2 innings while recording a 12:2 K:BB. If he carries that strong performance into the minor-league season, he could push for starts later in the year.
