Brandon Woodruff Returns to IL with Shoulder Inflammation for Brewers

Brandon Woodruff, the Brewers' right‑handed starter, saw his fastball lose velocity in his recent start versus the Arizona Diamondbacks, prompting an early departure. Medical staff diagnosed inflammation in his throwing shoulder and recommended a brief rest.

The pitcher was officially returned to the injured list the following day, ending his short‑term comeback hopes for the season.
