Woodruff Returns as Brewers Hold Lead

Milwaukee Brewers’ rotation is finally getting a major boost as Brandon Woodruff, sidelined since May with shoulder inflammation, is nearing a return—possibly as early as Monday against the Reds. His comeback is critical, especially with key starters Quinn Priester (out for the season) and Logan Henderson (back by July) already sidelined, and prospect Brandon Sproat dealing with hamstring issues. Woodruff, who was having a strong season with a 2-1 record and a 3.60 ERA, could help solidify a rotation that’s kept the Brewers atop the NL Central by 5.5 games. Manager Pat Murphy is already adjusting plans, potentially pushing ace Jacob Misiorowski back a start. With Woodruff back, the Brewers could field one of the deepest rotations in the league.
