Tyler Anderson led the Dodgers in innings pitched in 2022 and finished fifth in the National League in ERA, bring an unexpected steadiness to a starting rotation that had a lot more volatility than they might have expected. Only Anderson and Julio Urias remained healthy all season, with Walker Buehler, Clayton Kershaw, Tony Gonsolin, Dustin May, and Andrew Heaney all missing significant time with injuries.
On Tuesday, instead of accepting L.A.’s qualifying offer of $19.65 million for 2023, Anderson chose to sign with the Orange County Angels of the Greater Tustin Area for three years and $39 million.
