PHOENIX — Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Brandon Woodruff said he exceeded his expectations when he faced hitters for the first time since late in the 2023 season. The two-time All-Star injured his shoulder Sept. 23, 2023 against the Miami Marlins. He threw 20 pitches of batting practice. Woodruff said his immediate focus was to build on this process and he didn't know when he might go against opposing batters in spring training games. He was 5-1 with a 2.28 ERA at the time of the injury.
