Brandon Woodruff News
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Brandon Woodruff (shoulder), who won't pitch in the majors this year after undergoing shoulder surgery last October, will be a notable addition to the team's traveling party this weekend in Cincinnati and will throw another bullpen after throwing his first bullpen session of 15 pitches this Tuesday at American Family Field before the series opener against the San Francisco Giants. His next session is scheduled for Friday or Saturday at Great American Ball Park, depending on the weather. These are early days in Woodruff's recovery as he makes a bid to return to the form that produced a 3.10 ERA over his first seven seasons in Milwaukee. The 31-year-old is signed for 2025 and has a mutual option for 2026. If healthy next year, he'll be rostered in all fantasy formats.

Brandon Woodruff Plays Catch Tuesday
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) was seen playing catch on Tuesday before the team's game against the visiting division-rival Chicago Cubs. Woodruff has already declared himself out for all of the 2024 season after he had surgery to fix the anterior capsule in his right shoulder, but it's good news to hear that he's already started a throwing program. Despite having surgery last fall, the Brewers signed the 31-year-old veteran to a two-year, $7.5 million deal. Barring a setback as he ramps up his throwing program, Woodruff should start throwing off a mound at some point this summer as he looks to be full-go for spring training next year. When healthy, Woodruff is a high-end fantasy starter in all formats. In 11 starts before he was shut down last year, he went 5-1 with a stingy 2.28 ERA and 0.82 WHIP with 15 walks and 74 K's in 11 starts (67 frames).

Brandon Woodruff Placed On 60-Day Injured List
The Milwaukee Brewers placed right-hander Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) on the 60-day injured list on Wednesday to make room on the 40-man roster for recently signed catcher Gary Sanchez. Woodruff was able to begin a throwing program last week and is over four months removed from having surgery on the anterior capsule in his right shoulder in October that will keep him out for the entire 2024 season. While the 31-year-old is feeling great following his surgery, he still faces a long recovery process and will be off the fantasy radar in single-year leagues this spring. Fantasy managers that take on the two-time All-Star next year will be dealing with some risk/reward in hopes that Woodruff can return to his pre-injury form.

Brandon Woodruff Back With The Brewers
The Milwaukee Brewers and right-hander Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) agreed to an undisclosed two-year deal on Monday. The Brewers non-tendered Woodruff this offseason after he had surgery to fix the anterior capsule in his right shoulder, but the 31-year-old veteran will now be back in Milwaukee. Because of his injury, he won't pitch at all in 2024 and therefore will be off the fantasy radar in all single-year leagues. It remains to be seen if Woodruff will return ace value for fantasy managers when he returns in 2025. The two-time All-Star had a career-best 2.28 ERA and 0.82 WHIP with 15 walks and 74 strikeouts in 11 starts (67 innings) last year before getting hurt, and he owns a strong career ERA of 3.10 with a 1.04 WHIP and 788 K's in 680 1/3 major-league innings over seven seasons for the Brewers.

Mets Considering Brandon Woodruff
SNY's Andy Martino said Tuesday that the New York Mets could consider signing free-agent starting pitcher Brandon Woodruff (shoulder), although nothing is close to being finalized between the two sides. The 30-year-old, who underwent right shoulder surgery in 2023, may not pitch at all in 2024 but is likely looking for a two-year deal. Woodruff has been a high-end starter throughout his career when healthy and went 5-1 in 11 starts and 67 innings pitched in 2023 with a 2.28 ERA, 0.82 WHIP, and 29.2% strikeout rate. Woodruff has spent his entire seven-year career with the Brewers, coinciding with Mets president of baseball operations David Stearns' time as the Brewers' general manager.

"Majority Of Teams" Interested In Brandon Woodruff
MLB Network's Jon Morosi reported Monday that the "majority of teams" are interested in free-agent starting pitcher Brandon Woodruff (shoulder). The 30-year-old was non-tendered by the Brewers last week after undergoing right shoulder surgery. There is a chance that he may not pitch at all in 2024, but he is expected to sign a multiyear deal regardless. Woodruff has been a high-end starter throughout his career when healthy and went 5-1 in 11 starts and 67 innings pitched in 2023 with a 2.28 ERA, 0.82 WHIP, and 29.2% strikeout rate. The injury risk is apparent, but his upside is clearly so high that many teams are interested in bringing him on.

Brandon Woodruff Non-Tendered By Brewers
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) has been non-tendered by the organization on Friday. The Brewers were reportedly discussing trading Woodruff, but weren't able to finalize a deal. It's a tough sell given the fact Woodruff will likely make over $10 million next season and isn't expected to pitch at all due to shoulder surgery. It appears the Brewers aren't going to hold out hope that Woodruff is able to contribute in 2024. That being said, Woodruff will now become a free agent this offseason. He'll likely get a two-year deal from an organization with the 2024 campaign likely being wasted while he recovers.

Brandon Woodruff Undergoes Surgery, Expected To Miss Most Of 2024
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) had surgery on Friday to fix the anterior capsule in his right shoulder and is expected to miss most, if not all, of the 2024 season, according to the team. The Brewers were hoping for good news on Woodruff heading into next year, but this isn't it. The 30-year-old is an anchor of the Brewers' staff when healthy, but they'll have to make due without him for next season. He made only 11 starts in 2023 due to his shoulder injury and went 5-1 with a career-best 2.28 ERA (3.60 FIP), 0.82 WHIP and 74 strikeouts in 67 innings pitched. Milwaukee continues to say that Woodruff remains a big part of their future, so expect them to consider extending him at some point with 2024 being his final year of team control. Fantasy managers can take him off their draft boards for next season.

Brewers Optimistic About Brandon Woodruff's Availability For 2024
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) will get a second opinion on his injured right shoulder this week, but the team remains "optimistic" for his availability next year, according to general manager Matt Arnold. Woodruff was unavailable to pitch in the wild-card series against the Arizona Diamondbacks last week, and he might not have been available at all in the postseason this year had the Brew Crew advanced. Barring a setback with Woodruff this offseason, it sounds as though he has a good chance to be ready to go at some point in spring training in 2024. The 30-year-old two-time All-Star made only 11 starts due to injury in 2023, but he was great when on the mound, going 5-1 with a career-low 2.28 ERA, 0.82 WHIP, 15 walks and 74 strikeouts in 67 innings pitched.

Brandon Woodruff To Miss Wild-Card Series With Shoulder Injury
Milwaukee Brewers manager Craig Counsell said that right-hander Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) will miss the wild-card series against the Arizona Diamondbacks with a right-shoulder capsular injury. "His availability for the postseason is up in the air at this point," Counsell said. It's a major blow for the Brewers as they head into the postseason this week. The 30-year-old didn't pitch in the final week of the regular season, either, and now he might not be able to pitch at all in the postseason for however long the Brewers extend their season. Woodruff only made 11 starts for the Brew Crew this year, but he was fantastic when he was out there, going 5-1 with a 2.28 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and 74 strikeouts in 67 innings pitched.
