Brewers Place Logan Henderson on Injured List with Back Strain, Call Up Coleman Crow Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Logan Henderson has been placed back on the 15-day injured list due to a low back strain, with the team recalling rookie righty Coleman Crow to fill his spot in the starting rotation. The move comes after Henderson, 24, reported worsening back tightness following a start on Friday against the Dodgers, to the point where he struggled with everyday tasks like tying his shoes. Henderson, who has a 2.23 ERA in 10 Major League starts over the past two seasons, has faced recurring injury issues. Last season, he spent the final two months on the injured list with right elbow inflammation, and his spring training progress was cautious. This season, he has made five starts, posting a 2-1 record with a 2.74 ERA. However, the back strain has forced him back on the disabled list, with manager Pat Murphy indicating the team felt the issue hadn’t resolved despite an MRI ruling out bulging or structural damage. The Brewers plan to use a bullpen game for Wednesday’s series finale against the Cardinals, where Henderson would have pitched if healthy. Henderson expressed disappointment at being sidelined, stating, “I want to be out there. It’s certainly disappointing. I feel like I’m obviously letting the team down, and the fans down to a degree.” He acknowledged the team’s depth, noting the roster’s readiness for other pitchers to step up. To replace Henderson, the Brewers have called up 25-year-old rookie Coleman Crow, MLB Pipeline’s No. 25 prospect. Crow, who has pitched well in two spot starts this season against the Marlins and Twins, will make his major league debut on Friday against the Astros. He last pitched for Triple-A Nashville on Friday, ensuring he’ll be well-rested for the start.#pat_murphy #milkaukee_brewers #logan_henderson #coleman_crow #brandon_woodruff
