The Milwaukee Brewers made a big step toward shoring up their pitching staff by signing right-handed pitcher Chase Anderson to a two-year contract.
The contract runs through the 2019 season with club options for 2020 and 2021.
“Signing Chase to a multi-year contract furthers our strategy to acquire, develop and retain talent throughout our organization,” general manager David Stearns said.
Anderson, 29, was 12-4 with a 2.74 ERA in 25 starts for the Brewers in 2017, a career high for wins and strikeouts (133).
