Logan Henderson, the Milwaukee Brewers’ 12th-ranked prospect, has had an impressive start to the 2025 season, showcasing his potential as a valuable player in the major leagues. After beginning the season with Triple-A Nashville, Henderson made his MLB debut with a spot start on April 20, where he impressively pitched six innings, allowing only one run while striking out nine batters. He subsequently returned to Triple-A but was called back up on May 14 due to Jose Quintana’s injury, where he continued to make his presence known.
In his latest stint, Henderson maintained a remarkable performance, yielding no more than two runs in each of his three starts, including a standout game where he threw five shutout innings against the Baltimore Orioles. With a compelling 1.71 ERA and 29 strikeouts across his first four major league starts, his demotion on May 26 came as a disappointment. The Brewers’ rotation was filled with returning arms, leaving Henderson without room.
Currently, Henderson remains at Triple-A, having not allowed any runs in his last eight innings pitched. However, with the Brewers’ consistent five-man rotation including Freddy Peralta and newly returning pitchers, it may be a while before Henderson is called back up. Despite this, he is still regarded as a player to watch in fantasy baseball leagues, especially those with deeper rosters. His stellar stats—including a 35.8% strikeout rate and a low .230 expected batting average against—highlight his effectiveness and potential for future contributions to the team.
Given his strong performances in both the minors and majors, there is much hope for Henderson’s continued development. Fans and fantasy owners alike are eager to see how soon he can reclaim a spot in the Brewers’ lineup, especially as he has nothing left to prove at Triple-A and is poised for further success when that opportunity arises.
