Last season's numbers were, however, a step back from the 154 wRC+ and 7.9 fWAR Henderson delivered in 2024. Henderson missed most of Spring Training and the first week of regular-season action recovering from an intercostal strain, but the shortstop revealed Thursday that he also spent about " three-quarters of the year " dealing with a heretofore unknown shoulder impingement.
Kopech began the year on the 15-day injured list because of a right shoulder impingement that was believed to be related to lingering effects from forearm inflammation that surfaced during the 2024 postseason. Kopech wasn't activated until June 7 and landed back on the injured list July 1 due to right knee inflammation. That was followed by undergoing surgery to repair the meniscus in his right knee.
