Brewers tab righty Chase Anderson for opening-day start

   PHOENIX (AP) -- The Milwaukee Brewers have picked right-hander Chase Anderson to start on opening day on March 29 at San Diego.

   The 30-year-old Anderson had the best season of his four-year career in 2017, going 12-4 with a 2.74 ERA in 25 starts. He will be making his first career opening day start when he takes the mound in San Diego.
