Brandon Woodruff pulled from start mid at-bat in 4th inning
Photo by Christian Petersen/ Oh man, please don’t be anything serious. Things got off to a rocky start for Brandon Woodruff this afternoon in his start against the Arizona Diamondbacks, as the hurler yielded four runs across the first three innings of the ballgame. The offense breathed new life into the ballgame with a grand slam to tie the game off the bat of Tyler Saladino in the top of the fourth and Woodruff went back out to the mound to keep things going in the bottom half of the inning. But he lasted only two pitches, getting pulled mid at-bat with in an apparent injury...

Braves, Wilson hammered by Brewers 13-1
Photo by Quinn Harris/ This one was ugly. The Braves, from Bryse Wilson early to Touki Toussaint late, got absolutely demolished by the Brewers in this game. Brandon Woodruff was excellent, and the Brewers offense gave him plenty of run support in a 13-1 beating of the Braves. The Atlanta offense was eerily quiet for almost the entirety of the game aside from a Tyler Flowers solo home run in the fifth inning. Brandon Woodruff opened the game firing his trademark high-90’s fastball for strikes, and continued to attack Atlanta hitters all night. Woodruff was lifted with two outs in the...

Brewers announce starting rotation coming out of All-Star Break
Brandon Woodruff does not pitch again until July 16 An interesting piece of information coming out of Brewers camp concerns how Milwaukee will sequence their starting rotation coming out of the break. Since Brandon Woodruff pitched like the Brewers’ ace in the first half and Zach Davies pitched well too, it could be assumed that they would cover the first two games against the San Francisco Giants on Friday and Saturday.

Milwaukee Brewers may be polishing up a hidden gem in pitching prospect Johan Belisario
A minor league free agent signing before the season, he is having a stellar year for the Shuckers. If there is one thing that the Milwaukee Brewers have done well under the David Stearns regime, it is develop pitchers. Since the current brain trust’s first year at the helm in 2016, Josh Hader and Brandon Woodruff have graduated into All-Stars. Corbin Burnes, Freddy Peralta, Brent Suter, and Adrian Houser have become MLB-caliber hurlers. Scrap-heap pickups like Junior Guerra and Jeremy Jeffress have advanced into multi-year roles with the Cream City Nine. The org has coaxed top-flight...

Brandon Woodruff added to National League All-Star Team
His spot comes at the expense of another teammate. Major League Baseball announced three new additions to the 2019 All-Star teams this afternoon. Masahiro Tanaka will replace injured Marcus Stroman for the American League. In the National League, Pirates reliever Felipe Vazquez gets the honor of getting one of two open spots.

Todd Rosiak reported that Brandon Woodruff would take the place of Josh...

Reds beat Brewers 1-0 in classic pitcher’s duel on Independence Day
Brewers held scoreless in last 23 innings Two aces took the mound today for the Brewers and Reds. Brandon Woodruff and Luis Castillo pitched like the aces they are. Woody was sensational. His line was 6 innings pitched giving up just 1 run on 7 hits. He struck out 6 while walking none. Surprisingly he was removed from the game going into the seventh with just 88 pitches thrown. A 1-2-3 sixth inning for Brandon Woodruff, who is pitching a gem for the #Brewers that no one is noticing because of Castillo's no-hit bid.— Tom (@Haudricourt) July 4, 2019 Luis Castillo was even better.

Brandon Woodruff carries Brewers to 3-1 victory against the Pirates
Eric Thames also helped the cause Brandon Woodruff and the Milwaukee Brewers cruised to a 3-1 victory against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Woodruff continued to be the anchor of the Brewers rotation. The only trouble he faced came immediately in the first inning. Woody gave up a hit to the first batter and then hit the second batter to immediately put two on. He safely navigated past Starling Marte and Josh Bell, but allowed gave up a double to Colin Moran. One batter came in to score, but Christian Yelich and Keston Hiura teamed up to gun down the runner trying to score from first at the...
