Report: Dodgers, Brett Anderson agree to one-year, $10 million deal
The Los Angeles Dodgers and left-handed pitcher Brett Anderson have agreed to a one-year, $10 million deal, reports ESPN's Buster Olney.
The deal comes with $4 million in possible incentives, according to Olney.
Anderson started eight games for the Colorado Rockies in 2014, going 1-3 with a 2.91 ERA and 1.315 WHIP. He had season-ending back surgery in August and the Rockies later declined a $12 million option on him for 2015.

In 2011, Anderson underwent Tommy John surgery and made only six starts the following season.
