Cody Anderson Shines While Offense Continues to Snooze in 1-0 Win

I’ve said this before on the blog talking about Aaron Harang (before the Indians somewhat foolishly let him go before Opening Day 2014), and Scott Elarton, and even Shaun Marcum, but I love having an underdog 5th starter type that I can look forward to rooting for every fifth day. Guys like TJ House – no disrespect to him intended at all – just don’t inspire the same kind of storyline for me. You don’t want your fifth starter to be a guy whose ceiling is “5th starter,” you want a guy whose ceiling is way above that (Scott Kazmir coming off of injury and being left for dead by the major leagues) or way below that – at least perceptually.
