7 entriesPitcher List's top SP add. Henderson's PLV (5.40) puts him in elite pitch-quality territory, and the Brewers' rotation has produced top-end fantasy SPs all season. He's a top-25 SP rest of season if the underlying numbers hold. Claim in any 12+ team league he's still floating.
Pitcher List's top SP add. Henderson's stuff grades elite by every model — 32.7% K-rate with just 4.1% walks. Small sample but the underlying skills are real. Top-40 SP rest of season as a stream now, with upside if he locks down a rotation spot. Add aggressively in 12+ team leagues.
Henderson's Sunday line earned the rotation spot — Pat Murphy said he 'may earn additional rotation opportunities.' With Misiorowski back from the cramp scare and Woodruff still IL'd, Henderson is the near-term Brewers SP4 and the long-term option for whichever struggling arm gets demoted next. SP4 in 12-team mixed.
Henderson delivered exactly the kind of start that earns extended rotation reps — 6 IP, 2 ER, 8 K, 0 BB on Sunday vs. Washington. With Misiorowski healthy and Woodruff still IL'd, he's likely to slot into the next-man-up role; per Pat Murphy, he 'may earn additional rotation opportunities.' Add aggressively in 12+ team leagues; SP4 with upside.
Henderson is up to make today's start at Washington — his first since Woodruff hit the 15-day IL. Triple-A line was 1.02 ERA / 26:9 K:BB; the MLB sample is 3-0, 2.30 across 27.1 IP. Faces a Nats lineup ranked bottom-10 in offense vs. RHP. Add in all 12+ team leagues; stream confidently today.
Henderson takes Woodruff's rotation spot for at least the next two weeks, and he's earned it — 1.02 ERA with a 26:9 K:BB at Triple-A, and a 3-0, 2.30 ERA across 27.1 MLB innings. The opportunity is locked in; the talent is real. Priority add in all 12+ team leagues.
Pitcher List's #1 pitcher add — Henderson made a brief 27th-man start earlier this month and was sent down, but with Woodruff potentially headed to the IL after Thursday's dead-arm exit, he's the obvious next call-up. Top-100 prospect with elite Triple-A K-rate. Add now while ownership is still under 35%; if Woodruff hits the IL, he'll spike past 60% by Sunday.
Stash of the Week
3 entriesHenderson takes Brandon Woodruff's rotation spot today and faces a soft Nationals lineup at Nationals Park. The Triple-A Nashville line is dominant (1.02 ERA, 1.19 WHIP, 26:9 K:BB across 17.2 IP) and his MLB body of work matches it (3-0, 2.30, 36 K in 27.1 IP). Even when Woodruff returns from his shoulder inflammation in 2-4 weeks, Henderson has played well enough that he could push out Aaron Civale or one of the Brewers' weaker rotation arms. The opportunity is real, the talent is proven, and today's matchup is favorable. Add in all 12+ team formats; if you can stash him through 2 starts, the rest-of-season SP4/SP5 value is locked in.
Woodruff's IL stint opens a Brewers rotation spot for at least 2-3 weeks, and Henderson is the clear next man up. He's been dominant at Triple-A Nashville — 1.02 ERA, 1.19 WHIP, 26:9 K:BB across 17.2 IP — and his MLB body of work is also strong (3-0, 2.30 ERA, 1.06 WHIP, 36 K in 27.1 IP). The Brewers' rotation has been the strength of their roster all year, and Henderson is the kind of arm Pat Murphy trusts to maintain that identity. Even if Woodruff returns at the minimum 15 days, Henderson should rack up 3-4 starts in that window with a real chance to stick if he performs. Add in all 12+ team formats and stream him aggressively — schedule sets up well for Week 6 with home dates against teams that struggle vs. RHP.
Henderson is a top-100 prospect who's been carving up Triple-A Nashville (1.02 ERA, 35.6% K-rate in 17.2 IP) and already got a 27th-man cameo in Milwaukee earlier this month. With Brandon Woodruff's velocity collapse Thursday all-but-confirming an IL stint is coming, Henderson is the obvious next man up. The 24-year-old righty has elite swing-and-miss stuff that's been building since elbow soreness last spring, and the Brewers' rotation has been thinning all month. Add him now before the Woodruff IL announcement spikes ownership over 60%. He projects as a strikeout-heavy SP4 in mixed leagues if he sticks, with matchup-friendly outings against the Nationals and Reds in the next two weeks.
