The Brewers added right-handers and to their 40-man roster in advance of todays Rule 5 deadline, MLB.coms Adam McCalvy reports ( ). Since Milwaukee has two more open spaces on the 40-man, McCalvy writes that more players could still be protected prior to 5pm CT. Henderson was a fourth-round pick for the Brewers in Mikal Bridges Jersey the 2021 draft, though an elbow surgery kept him from making his pro debut until over a year after his draft date. After pitching only 13 2/3 innings in 2022, Henderson to sed 78 2/3 frames at A-ball in 2023, then 81 1/3 innings acro s four different minor league levels this past season. The overall numbers (3.32 ERA, 32.8% strikeout rate, 4.73% walk rate) were very impre sive, though Henderson had a 4.56 ERA in 23 2/3 Triple-A innings and ran into some home run trouble. Hendersons signature pitch is a plus changeup that is so effective that it allows him to get away with a fastball that has movement but sits in the 88-92mph range. This two-pitch arsenal could mean that Henderson will ultimately end up as a reliever, though obviously the Brewers will first give him plenty of looks to see if he can further develop as a starting pitcher. Since the 22-year-old Henderson has already cracked the Triple-A level and could be close to his Major League debut, it stands to reason that he mightve gotten a lot of attention from teams in the Rule 5 Draft. MLB Pipeline ranks Henderson 11th among all Milwaukee prospects, while Baseball America ranks him 21st. Patrick isnt on either outlets top-30 list, though considering his solid amount (158 innings) of Triple-A experience, he also likely wouldve been on rival teams R5 radars. Patrick was also a fourth-round pick in 2021, as the Diamondbacks took the right-hander nine spots before the Brewers selected Henderson. Arizona dealt Patrick to the Athletics for at the 2023 trade deadline, and the As then flipped Patrick to the Brewers almost exactly one year ago in that sent to Oakland. After struggling badly in 2023, Patrick found his footing in his new organization, posting a 2.90 ERA, 26.1% strikeout rate, and seven percent walk rate acro s 136 1/3 innings with Triple-A Nashville. While a .267 BABIP and 79.2% strand rate helped Patricks cause, he started 24 of his 26 games and delivered quality bottom-line results, thus earning his first 40-man placement. Since the Brewers frequently churn pitchers up and down from the minors, the 26-year-old Patrick also could get a look for his MLB debut next season. Jason Kidd Jersey
