Brandon Woodruff Looks Very Sharp In Rehab Debut
10 months agoMilwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) fired three scoreless innings on two hits with four strikeouts in Saturday's game at High-A Wisconsin. The 30-year-old put forth a very encouraging performance in his rehab debut appearance, launching 27 of 32 pitches in the strike zone. Woodruff has sat on the injured list since April 11 with a right shoulder strain, so he's looking at another three or four minor-league starts to build himself back up before a potential activation. Mid-August seems like a reasonable timeframe for the right-hander's return if all goes smoothly. Woodruff, a fantasy ace when healthy, gave up only one run with 12 punchouts and three walks in 11 1/3 innings over two starts early this season.
