Brandon Woodruff Pain-Free Despite Being Pulled From Thursday's Outing
Updating a previous report, Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy told Brewers reporter Sophia Minnaert that right-hander Brandon Woodruff wasn't feeling any pain during his outing on Thursday against the Arizona Diamondbacks, but "nothing was coming out" in terms of his velocity, per Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. "He wasn't himself. He felt like, felt kind of dead," Murphy added. Woodruff couldn't get over 85 mph while recording only four outs on Thursday before being pulled. It's obviously pretty concerning, especially for a veteran pitcher who got a late start last year after recovering from right-shoulder surgery. Woodruff also missed time late last year due to a lat injury that he was managing going into spring training. He hadn't been terrible coming into Thursday's start, posting a 3.77 ERA and 1.01 WHIP with 23 strikeouts and six walks in 28 2/3 innings pitched. But Woodruff's lack of velocity should definitely concern his fantasy managers. It's unclear if the 33-year-old will be ready to make his next scheduled start. Murphy said the Brewers will be extremely cautious with Woodruff.
