Anderson

This is getting ridiculous. Anderson lowered his ERA to a microscopic 1.29 mark across 49 innings over 10 starts this season by allowing just one baserunner and needing just 73 pitches (47 strikes) to navigate five nearly-perfect frames. He posted nine strikeouts for the third time in his last five starts. The 21-year-old southpaw, who was selected third overall in last year’s MLB Draft, is on the fast track to Seattle and figures to get his opportunity later this summer, especially if the club is in contention for a playoff spot. His arrival doesn’t feel imminent, but the Mariners might not be able to hold him off too much longer if he keeps this up.

Anderson’s dominant start to his professional career continued with another scoreless outing, lowering his ERA to a remarkable 1.43 across 44 innings through nine starts. He’s also compiled an eye-popping 67/7 K/BB ratio over that span. Pirates phenom Seth Hernandez may be the most intriguing long-term pitching prospect in the minors, but Anderson is several steps closer to the majors and could emerge as a meaningful fantasy contributor later this season. There’s even a scenario where Seattle deems him ready and promotes him directly to the big leagues, bypassing Triple-A Tacoma altogether, though that feels unlikely right now. Even so, he’s worth stashing in fantasy leagues given how quickly he could force the issue.

Anderson carried a shutout into the sixth inning before coughing up a solo homer with two outs in the frame. He threw a whopping 49 of 75 pitches for strikes in his latest dominant outing. He’s topped eight strikeouts in four of his six starts to kick off his professional debut. The21-year-old southpaw, who was selected third overall in last year’s MLB Draft, continues to look like one of the top pitching prospects in the fantasy landscape with a sparkling 0.60 ERA, 0.67 WHIP and 47/5 K/BB ratio across 30 innings. There’s a very real possibility he’s pitching in Seattle by the end of the year.

Anderson continues to rapidly cement his status as one of the top fantasy pitching prospects in the game with a microscopic 0.37 ERA and 38/4 K/BB ratio across 24 1/3 innings over five starts in his professional debut. The 21-year-old southpaw, who was the third-overall selection in last year’s MLB Draft, is on track to potentially join Seattle’s rotation by the end of the season and offers enough strikeout upside to envision an instant fantasy impact. He’ll likely spent some time at Triple-A Tacoma before reaching the majors, but it’s a realistic possibility that he reaches T-Mobile Park this summer.

Anderson’s latest dominant performance where he allowed just one baserunner was cut short due to inclement weather after just 59 pitches (39 strikes). The 21-year-old southpaw, who was selected third overall in last year’s draft, has looked like one of the top pitching prospects in baseball during his professional debut, recording a sublime 0.48 ERA, 0.86 WHIP and 30/4 K/BB ratio across 18 1/3 innings over four starts at the Double-A level. There’s a non-zero chance he makes it to Seattle at some point later this season and he would offer enough strikeout upside to merit a roster spot in all fantasy formats.

Anderson has looked like the top pitching prospect in the entire minors this season, reeling off nine consecutive scoreless inning with 17 strikeouts and three walks over a pair of starts at the Double-A level. His ability to generate whiffs and fill up the zone with his entire four-pitch arsenal was on display in this one as he generated 14 swinging strikes and threw 48 of 70 pitches for strikes. The 21-year-old southpaw, who was selected third overall in last year’s MLB Draft, appears likely to ascend rapidly towards Seattle with a chance to arrive in the majors later this year. He’ll be the top-ranked pitching prospect on all dynasty rankings lists by midseason.

Anderson’s professional debut went swimmingly as he scattered five hits and one walk, navigating traffic on the basepaths in all four frames, while generating 12 swinging strikes on 59 pitches (43 strikes). The third-overall pick in last year’s MLB Draft is one of the top pitching prospects in the fantasy landscape based on his immense strikeout upside. The 21-year-old southpaw looked extremely impressive in spring training and has a realistic chance to arrive in Seattle later this summer.

Anderson, the third-overall pick in the 2025 MLB Draft, looked extremely impressive in three Cactus League outings this spring and appears to be on the fast-track to the big leagues. The 21-year-old southpaw possesses enough strikeout upside to make an immediate fantasy impact once he reaches the majors. He’s one of the few pitching prospects worth stashing at the outset of the year, especially in deeper mixed leagues.

Anderson, the third overall pick in the 2025 draft, isn’t going to open this season in the majors, but he might finish it in Seattle. He threw 25 of his 34 pitches for strikes today. Last year, he had a 180/35 K/BB in 119 innings for LSU.

The run-provention isn’t great, but Anderson did strike out three of the seven hitters he faced and looked filthy doing so. The 21-year-old was the third-overall pick in 2026, and while he doesn’t have quite the same elite stuff as a Paul Skenes or pitchers of that ilk, there’s just as good of chance Anderson makes an early debut. Fantasy managers should be prepared if he gets the call for Seattle in 2026.
