The Milwaukee Brewers will reportedly be without one of their key pieces for the first few months of the 2024 season.
According to ESPN's Jeff Passan, closer Devin Williams suffered two stress fractures in his back. The injury is expected to sideline him for approximately three months, and the plan is to rehab it ahead of a potential midseason return.
Passan noted Williams visited a back specialist Wednesday. The back specialist diagnosed the injury as two stress fractures and said a full recovery is expected following six weeks of inactivity and six weeks of rehab.
