According to Merkin, Anderson had the surgery Tuesday at St. Joseph's Westgate Medical Center in Glendale, Arizona, and is slated to jump back into his offseason training program once he's recovered fully.
The 25-year-old made his MLB debut on June 21 last season and proceeded to make 15 starts for the Indians. Over the course of 91.1 innings, Anderson went 7-3 with 44 strikeouts, 24 walks and a 3.05 ERA.
Anderson also posted a mark of 2.4 wins above replacement during his first MLB go-around, according to Baseball-Reference.com.
Merkin noted Anderson will likely slot in as a component of the Indians' deep starting rotation in 2016.
