Lindor recently underwent a right elbow debridement procedure.

It's the second cleanup surgery Lindor has had on the elbow over the last two years, as he previously had an operation after the 2023 season to remove bone spurs. The shortstop is expected to be fully healthy for the beginning of spring training. Lindor slashed .267/.346/.466 with 31 home runs, 31 stolen bases, 86 RBI and 117 runs scored for the Mets in 2025.

Steele (elbow) began a throwing program Monday, the pitcher posted from his X account.

The left-hander was cleared to throw on flat ground for the first time since undergoing UCL revision surgery in April. A firm timetable for Steele's readiness to pitch in games isn't clear, but he's likely to get a late start to next season. The left-hander boasts a 3.18 ERA and 458:128 K:BB over 449.2 innings since the beginning of the 2022 campaign.

Woodruff (lat) is expected to be 100 percent well ahead of spring training, MLB.com reports.

Woodruff didn't pitch after being diagnosed with a moderate right lat strain in late September. The injury is unrelated to his previous shoulder surgery, and the expectation is that he'll be fine after some rest. Woodruff and the Brewers have a $20 million mutual option for 2026 that carries a $10 million buyout. He pitched very well in 2025 when able to toe the rubber, collecting a 3.20 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 83:14 K:BB over 64.2 innings covering 12 starts. Woodruff will turn 33 in February and will remain a major injury risk heading into 2026.

Miller is likely to miss most, if not all, of the 2026 season after undergoing UCL and flexor tendon surgery Oct. 13, MLB.com reports.

Miller had been hopeful of a less invasive procedure that would give him a chance to return before the end of the 2026 campaign, but ultimately he's unlikely to pitch again until 2027. It's the second UCL repair for Miller, who had Tommy John surgery in May 2017. He's an impending free agent after posting a 2.74 ERA and 54:15 K:BB over 46 innings between the Diamondbacks and Brewers this season.

Scott (lower body) has been throwing and hopes to be included on the Dodgers' World Series roster, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.

Scott has not made an appearance this postseason after undergoing a lower-body abscess procedure earlier this month. It's unclear whether he will be built back up enough to be included on the roster for the World Series, which begins Friday. Scott paced the Dodgers with 23 saves during the regular season, but he had an up-and-down campaign, finishing with a 4.74 ERA and 60:18 K:BB over 57 frames.

Ohtani picked up the win against the Brewers on Friday in Game 4 of the NLCS, allowing two hits and three walks while striking out 10 batters across six-plus shutout innings. He also went 3-for-3 with three home runs and a walk as a batter.

In what could be the greatest single-game performance in MLB postseason history, Ohtani's dominance as both a pitcher and hitter was on full display. He struck out the side in the top of the first before giving himself a 1-0 lead with a 446-foot leadoff home run off Jose Quintana in the bottom of the frame. The two-way star then slugged a 469-foot shot off Chad Patrick in the fourth and completed the hat trick with a seventh-inning blast against Trevor Megill that traveled a mere 427 feet. After rattling off four consecutive victories over the Brewers, Ohtani and the Dodgers will now have a full week to rest up before facing either the Blue Jays or Mariners in what will be Los Angeles' second consecutive World Series appearance.

Quintana took the loss Friday against the Dodgers in Game 4 of the NLCS after allowing three earned runs on six hits and a walk while striking out one batter in two-plus innings.

Quintana was hardly able to get comfortable on the mound before Shohei Ohtani blasted a 446-foot home run against him to begin the first inning. Mookie Betts and Will Smith followed with a couple of singles and were brought home on a Tommy Edman single and Teoscar Hernandez groundout. Los Angeles wasn't able to score any more runs off Quintana, but consistent pressure forced the left-hander out of the game after just 49 pitches. With Milwaukee's season now over, the 36-year-old will turn his attention to free agency. He figures to receive interest on the open market after posting a 3.96 ERA and 1.29 WHIP across 131.2 innings in the regular season.

Vaughn isn't in the lineup for Game 4 of the NLCS versus the Dodgers on Friday.

Vaughn has gone 0-for-10 with a walk through the first three games of the series. Now one loss away from elimination, the Brewers will turn to Jake Bauers to start at first base in Vaughn's stead.

Chourio (hamstring) will start in left field and bat second in Game 4 of the NLCS against the Dodgers on Friday.

Chourio aggravated his injured hamstring during the seventh inning of Game 3 on Thursday, but he is seemingly feeling well enough to remain in the starting nine Friday. The 21-year-old outfielder has been one of the few Brewers hitters to contribute consistently during the postseason, slashing .276/.290/.552 with two homers and eight RBI through 31 plate appearances.

Nootbaar underwent surgery Oct. 7 on both heels to shave down Haglund's deformities, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

It's unclear how long Nootbaar's heels have bothered him, and it's also uncertain how long his rehab is expected to take. Nootbaar finished with career highs in games played (135) and plate appearances (583) this season but posted a disappointing .234/.325/.361 batting line with 13 home runs.
