US EditionBrewers demote Logan Henderson despite his success as team anticipates return of other pitchers
- The Milwaukee Brewers optioned pitcher Logan Henderson to Triple-A Nashville on Monday before their afternoon game against the Boston Red Sox.
- This roster change came after the Brewers activated DL Hall, who had been sidelined for an extended period, and in anticipation of the returns of José Quintana and Brandon Woodruff, both recovering from shoulder injuries.
- At 23 years old, right-handed pitcher Henderson has started his major league career strong, winning his initial three games and posting an impressive 1.71 earned run average across his first four starts, while leading the Brewers’ rotation in both ERA and strikeouts per nine innings with a rate of 12.4.
- Manager Pat Murphy described Henderson as 'so good' but noted he was not as sharp recently and called the demotion 'solid thinking' to preserve pitching resources and manage innings limits.
- The demotion reflects the Brewers' need to accommodate returning starters while managing an injury-plagued rotation, with Henderson pledging to work hard in the minors to regain his spot.
