Brandon Woodruff’s 2026 season is over as he undergoes capsule surgery on his throwing shoulder, with recovery likely impacting part of the 2027 season. Despite his injury struggles, including a previous capsule surgery in 2023, Woodruff remains committed to returning to the mound. The Brewers face pitching uncertainties without him, especially with other injuries affecting their rotation. As Woodruff heads to free agency, a potential two-year deal may be in play, balancing his injury history with his value to the team.
