Brett Anderson to miss 3-5 months

Brett Anderson will undergo surgery for a bulging disk in his back. Anderson "tweaked" his back during a bullpen session yesterday. (Ken Gurnick on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

The oft-injured Anderson was able to pitch a career-high 180 innings last year. The depth of the Dodgers starting rotation will once again be tested, especially with Hyun-Jin Ryu out for a while. Clayton Kershaw, Scott Kasmir, Kenta Maeda and Alex Wood look to be the top four right now. Mike Bolsinger and Brandon Beachy have been talked about replacing Anderson. I like Jose De Leon to make an impact sometime later in the season.
