Tyler Anderson, Colorado Rockies

Start: April 27th at Miami Marlins
ESPN percentage owned: 4.5%

Recommending a Colorado Rockies starter away from Coors Field should be a cut-and-paste job, but Tyler Anderson is having a bizarro 2018 in terms of home/away splits, sporting a solid 3.00 ERA at Coors and a unseemly 5.54 mark on the road. This one's easy to explain, though: Anderson is the poor soul who got shelled for seven earned in just two-plus frames by the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field in the season's opening week, and he simply hasn't put in enough work to live down that awful first start.

Look for Anderson to chip away at that road ERA this week, as the Rockies travel to the spacious Marlins Park to face what could be the league's worst offense, with Miami posting a barely-there .086 team isolated slugging to start the season. Owners in competitive deep leagues might even consider holding on to the young lefty: the Rockies are road-tripping for the better part of early May, with away dates at pitcher-friendly Petco Park and AT&T Park on the docket.
