Woodruff Back on the Mound

Brandon Woodruff is back on the mound for the Brewers after a nearly two-month injury layoff, set to face the Reds on Monday. He battled shoulder inflammation and a cyst requiring drainage, but two strong rehab starts—including a five-inning outing—showcased his readiness. Woodruff feels great, hit his pitch count, and emphasized the importance of a full recovery to compete at the highest level. With a 2-1 record and 3.60 ERA before his injury, he’s eager to rejoin the fight, focused on one pitch at a time. Manager Pat Murphy trusts him to find ways to get batters out—even without peak velocity. Woodruff’s return adds crucial stability to a rotation in flux, and he’s ready to contribute and be back in the game. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
