That would be a risky and expensive bet; Woodruff earned $10.8 million this season, and considering how the arbitration system works, he could actually make more next year.\n\n2\\ The agent The Brewers and Woodruff, Bo McKinnis, could negotiate a multi-year contract with the idea that he would rehab in 2024 and then have a chance to re-establish himself in 1925 and possibly beyond . This would also be risky and expensive, as there is no guarantee of a smooth rehabilitation due to the nature of the shoulder injuries.\n\n3\\. The Brewers could trade Woodruff to a club willing to attempt such a deal. However, the fact that he wasn’t traded on Friday meant that no team was willing to take that risk given the cost.\n\n4\\. The Brewers could non-tender Woodruff and keep the door open for a later re-signing.\n\nThe final option was the one that emerged. Woodruff is the third starting pitcher the Brewers have lost since the end of the season, with Eric Lauer hitting free agency after being removed from the 40-man roster and Wade Miley declining his half of a shared option. With Burnes a potential trade player this winter and left-hander Aaron Ashby coming off a lost season due to his own shoulder injury, next year’s rotation currently only leaves Freddy Peralta, Colin Rea and perhaps Houser as players. The Brewers like pitching prospects Robert Gasser and Carlos Rodriguez, both of whom are close to reaching the major leagues at some point next season. \n\n\”I still think we have a pretty solid foundation,” Arnold said. \”To be honest, we didn’t get many innings out of Woodruff last year.

That goes for any injury, but especially the shoulders, which is something Woodruff learned early last season when he suffered a lower shoulder strain. The injury lasted much longer than he had hoped, with breaks along the way, until he returned on August 6 and went 4-1 with a 2.13 ERA over eight outstanding starts before a shambles with the Marlins on September 23, which in retrospect was a sign of real trouble.\n\n “Talking to several doctors, yes, there is a path to throwing in 2024,” Woodruff said. “That really exists.
