Brandon Woodruff, the Milwaukee Brewers' pitcher, made a successful return to the mound with the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers, throwing 68 pitches over four innings. He expressed satisfaction with his performance after 19 months of recovery from shoulder surgery. Woodruff struggled initially, allowing three runs but improved his command as the game progressed, recording 44 strikes. Looking ahead, he aims to increase his pitch count and innings in subsequent rehab starts, with the ultimate goal of rejoining the Brewers in the majors.

Woodruff emphasized the importance of staying positive and focused during rehab, reflecting on how the experience has deepened his appreciation for the game. His determination to regain his form bodes well for fantasy managers keeping an eye on his return, as he possesses the potential to make a significant impact once fully healthy.
