Henderson (shoulder) threw at nearly max effort during Monday's spring training workouts.

Analysis:

Henderson is nearly back at 100 percent after undergoing shoulder surgery in August. It's not yet clear what his role will be come Opening Day, but the Brewers have yet to name a closer, and a healthy Henderson -- who saved 28 games two seasons ago -- figures to be an option unless a reliever such as Francisco Rodriguez or Jonathan Papelbon is added to the roster before the regular season kicks off.
