Brandon Woodruff to the Injured List: Concern for the Brewers’ Playoffs<\/h2>\n\nThe Milwaukee Brewers have placed pitcher Brandon Woodruff on the 15-day injured list due to a right lat strain, putting his participation in the playoffs at risk.\n\nWoodruff, who returned this season after shoulder surgery in October 2023, felt discomfort in his triceps during a bullpen session on Saturday. The initial evaluation attributed the problem to the latissimus dorsi in his upper back.\n\n\n

This is a side effect of doing this again at a high level, and that’s all. Is this the end of my career? No, it’s nothing like that.<\/p>Brandon Woodruff<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nThe news comes four days after left-handed pitcher Jos\u00e9 Quintana was placed on the 15-day injured list due to a left calf strain.\n\n\n

These two absences leave the Brewers, who have the best record in baseball, uncertain about how they will organize their playoff rotation beyond Freddy Peralta and Quinn Priester.<\/p>\n\n\nSince he came off the injured list in mid-August, rookie Jacob Misiorowski has allowed 21 runs in 30 and a third innings. Manager Pat Murphy talked about the possibility of giving him a relief role in the postseason.\n\n\n

Everyone who has thrown well is a factor, do you know what I mean?<\/p>Pat Murphy<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nThe Brewers called up left-handed pitcher Robert Gasser to start the final game of the series against the St. Louis Cardinals. The move with Woodruff was retroactive to Thursday.\n\nMurphy said closer Trevor Megill, who has been out since late August with a right flexor strain, could return for the end of the season if his bullpen sessions on Tuesday and Friday go well. Quintana has been able to continue his throwing program while working on running to regain the health of his calf.\n\nWoodruff, 32, missed all of last season after surgery to repair a torn anterior capsule and is 7-2 in 12 starts since returning in July.\n\nDespite his current injury, he said he has exceeded his expectations regarding the limits of the pitches thrown this year between his activity in spring training and the season.\n\n\n

The most important goal for me was to finish the year healthy. Hopefully we win the World Series, and now there’s a month left.<\/p>Brandon Woodruff<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nWoodruff refrained from setting expectations about his short-term status, and noted that he had not yet been able to meet with Dr. Keith Meister, who performed the surgery.\n\n\n

The most important thing is to be here where my feet are and then take it one step at a time, but I can’t comment on whether the season will end or not.<\/p>Brandon Woodruff<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nIt was expected that Woodruff would visit a specialist in St. Louis on Sunday before consulting with Meister.\n\n\n

Everything indicates that it’s not the shoulder, and that’s good, but this is the kind of thing that happens when you come back from an injury: you injure something else. So it’s devastating for the person, for Woody and how hard he’s worked to get here, and devastating for our team.<\/p>Pat Murphy<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
