Brewers’ Devin Williams out 3 months
Milwaukee Brewers pitcher and closer Devil Williams is expected to miss about 3 months from stress fractures in his back. Williams' back issues started back in September but he was able to play through it, even as they started to worsen coming into spring training. Williams took some brief time away to see a doctor, where it was diagnosed to be more serious. It’s not clear who will take the 2 time all-star’s spot or how the team will adapt.
Gerrit Cole out 4-6 weeks
New York Yankee pitcher and Cy Young winner Gerrit Cole is expected to miss 4-6 weeks as he recovers from injury. General Manager Aaron Boone had reported that Cole was having trouble recovering between games, raising concern and testing. Cole underwent MRIs, X-Rays, and a series of other tests, before it was announced he will be heading to world renowned surgeon Dr. Neal ElAttrache in the coming days for an in-person appointment. While losing Cole for any amount of time, it seems to not be as serious as it could be with no major damage reported. It is unclear how they will adapt their roster and if they will need to make any trades to right the ship.
