Brandon Woodruff Will Not Pitch in NLDS
Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Brandon Woodruff (lat) will not pitch in the National League Division Series against the division-rival Chicago Cubs that start on Saturday in Milwaukee, according to manager Pat Murphy. The good news is that Woodruff's lat injury is a separate issue from his right-shoulder surgery that was responsible for his late start to the 2025 season. The Brewers are not ruling out Woodruff being available if they advance past Chicago to the NLCS, per Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. The 32-year-old veteran is trying to recover from a right-lat strain that landed him on the 15-day injured list two weeks ago, but the fact that he has yet to resume throwing doesn't bode well for his chances of pitching in the NLCS if the Brew Crew advance. The two-time All-Star was limited to only 12 starts this year, but when available, he was solid, posting a 3.20 ERA, 0.91 WHIP, and 83:14 K:BB in 64 2/3 innings. Woodruff's best bet to return later in October might be in a relief role.
