The Milwaukee Brewers have recalled right-handed pitcher Logan Henderson from Triple-A Nashville, marking his MLB debut. At just 23 years old and a fourth-round pick in 2021, Henderson exhibits potential with impressive minor league stats, including an average strikeout rate exceeding 30%. Despite earlier season struggles, he has recently shown improved performance with 10 consecutive shutout innings. Although primarily a starter, he will initially serve as a long relief option in the bullpen, providing depth as the team prepares for upcoming games against the Athletics without revealing any injury concerns.
Henderson, 23, opened the season with a clunker in Nashville (four innings, five runs on six hits and three walks) but has bounced back with 10 straight shutout frames.
Though Henderson has been a starter in the minors, it seems he'll be tasked with providing some length in the bullpen for now.
His changeup, in particular, draws praise as a potential plus offering in the big leagues.
Henderson will provide a long relief option in place of the optioned-out Rodriguez, who tossed five innings of one-run ball yesterday in mop-up duty.
