Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Brandon Woodruff has been managing a right shoulder injury throughout the season. In early September, Woodruff was scheduled to begin the third week of a five-week throwing program, though manager Pat Murphy indicated there was a “low possibility” of a return within the 2026 season.

By late September, Woodruff was scheduled for further imaging to determine if he could begin throwing off a mound. This update occurred amidst broader Major League Baseball roster adjustments, including injury-related moves for the Atlanta Braves and the New York Yankees.
