The runs came in the first, with a David Hamilton error aiding the rally. Misiorowski had his best velocity of the year, averaging 99.7 mph with his fastball and topping out at 102.5 mph. He generated 18 whiffs, including 14 on his fastball alone. He deserves better than a 1-2 record to go along with his 3.04 ERA, and he’ll try to improve on it next time out against the Pirates.

Misiorowski dominated the Jays over the first four innings, but then allowed a pair of solo homers to turn a sensational start into just a pretty good one. He had his good velocity and generated a solid 12 swings-and-misses over only 76 pitches, and he didn’t issue a single walk. Misiorowski has looked the part to begin 2026, and he should have no issues handling Miami’s lineup Sunday as long as he throws strikes.

Misiorowski was dominant until walking three straight batters on just 13 pitches with one out in the sixth. It still had to be tempting to keep him in with Trevor Story coming up, considering that Story is swinging at everything and has an 18/0 K/BB this season. Still, the Brewers pulled him at 101 pitches, and Story ended up delivering a two-run single off DL Hall. Caleb Durbin then followed with an RBI groundout. It led to Misiorowski’s first loss in three starts this season. His ERA stands at 3.31 with the Blue Jays up next.

Misiorowski left a fastball over the heart of the plate in the third inning, which Rays slugger Yandy Díaz sliced into the right-field seats for a two-run homer. The electrifying 23-year-old flamethrower didn’t make any other mistakes in this one, limiting Tampa Bay’s lineup to just four hits and a pair of walks over six strong frames. He touched triple digits 17 times and averaged an other-worldly 98.9 mph on his four-seam fastball in this one. He’s recorded a pristine 2.45 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 18/5 K/BB ratio across 11 innings over two starts to open his sophomore campaign. He’ll square off against the Red Sox at historic Fenway Park on Tuesday in his next outing.

Misiorowski gave up a leadoff homer to Chase Meidroth, but the White Sox couldn’t get to him after that. He got 19 whiffs on his fastball alone and ended up with a 41% CSW. It’s Misiorowski’s third 10-strikeout game in 15 career starts. His high was 12 against the Dodgers last July. Misiorowski is due make his next start Wednesday against the Brewers.

Taking the mound just a few hours after being named the Brewers’ Opening Day starter, Misiorowski pitched a scoreless first and then was pulled after retiring only two of six batters in the second. It turned out to be a six-run inning for Arizona. Misiorowski returned for the third and was fine afterwards, retiring seven of the final nine batters he faced. Although his average fastball velocity was down 1.2 mph from last year, Misiorowski still touched 100.1 mph tonight. He’ll face the White Sox in next week’s opener.

Brandon Woodruff would have likely received the honor if he were fully healthy, but his status for the start of the season is still in question. Misiorowski, 23, has registered a 3.68 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and a 12/3 K/BB ratio across 7 1/3 innings during Cactus League play this spring.

The 23-year-old right-hander scattered four hits and a pair of walks in the contest. The damage done against him all came in the first inning on an RBI single by Jordan Beck and a sacrifice fly by TJ Rumfield. He settled in nicely after that and blanked the Rockies over his final three innings. Misiorowski got 10 whiffs on 70 pitches on the day — six of those on his curveball — while posting a CSW of 29 percent. His velocity was still a bit down in this one, averaging 97.6 mph on his heater (-1.7 mph), though it doesn’t feel like there’s reason for concern. He now holds a 3.68 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and a 12/3 K/BB ratio across 7 1/3 innings on the spring.

Misiorowski came out of the bullpen and hit triple-digits on three occasions in the abbreviated outing. Milwaukee has deliberately slow-played the 23-year-old flamethrower’s ramp-up this spring, but he still appears on track to open the season in the Brewers’ rotation. There’s plenty to like from a fantasy standpoint, particularly if the command gains he showed last year continue to hold. When a pitcher pairs that level of velocity with improving control, the conversation starts to change — and suddenly the ceiling begins to resemble something closer to top-of-the-rotation territory.

Misiorowski was making his spring debut today, as the Brewers have chosen to hold back their starters a little. Perhaps that’s why Misiorowski’s velocity was down 2-3 mph from last year, leaving him at 96.9 mph with his fastball today. He got nine whiffs on 18 swings anyway.

Misiorowski delivered an electric postseason performance, setting a Brewers franchise record with nine punchouts while retiring 15 of the 19 batters he faced in a dazzling bulk relief outing. He was summoned in the opening frame after lefty Aaron Ashby gave up an early run and whiffed both Tommy Edman and Teoscar Hernández to prevent any further damage. The 23-year-old strikeout artist traded zeroes with fellow towering flamethrower Tyler Glasnow into the middle innings with both hurlers benefitted greatly from the late-afternoon shadows at Dodger Stadium. Things finally unraveled in the sixth when the rookie seemed to hit the metaphorical wall, surrendering a go-ahead single to Tommy Edman following a leadoff single by Will Smith and a walk to ensuing batter Freddie Freeman. Misiorowski figures to be available later in the series for an all-hands-on-deck situation if the Brewers can somehow send the series back to Milwaukee.

It was initially thought that veteran lefty Jose Quintana would make a bulk relief appearance on Thursday night in Los Angeles, but it seems the Brewers want to save him for a critical Game 4 showdown instead. Misiorowski, who will follow lefty opener Aaron Ashby in this one, allowed one run over four innings to pick up the win in last weekend’s NLDS-clinching Game 5 win over the Cubs. The hard-throwing 23-year-old rookie righty holds a pristine 1.29 ERA over seven innings across two appearances this postseason. It’s a small sample size, but the results back up the belief many held that he would be a dominant bullpen arm if he ever made the switch to a full-time relief role.

It didn’t seem like Misiorowski would have this kind of night when he came out with less velocity than in Game 2 and gave up a homer to the very first batter he faced in Seiya Suzuki. However, he had both of his breaking balls working and ended up throwing just 17 fastballs over his 54 pitches. He’ll again be a big part of the Brewers’ plan of attack in the NLCS, even if he continues to work in relief.

Neither team is ready to name a starter for the win-or-go-home contest. It seems awfully likely that the Brewers will pitch Jacob Misiorowski at some point, but it’ll likely be behind an opener. The right-hander topped out at 104.3 mph while compiling a 35 percent CSW in Game 2.

The Brewers used eight pitchers tonight, with only Misiorowski, the third man in, completing two innings. Misiorowski averaged 101.5 mph with his 35 fastballs, topping out at 104.3 mph, and finished up with a nice 35% CSW. One imagines he’ll be a factor again in Game 5 if the series goes the distance.

Misiorowski’s role heading into the postseason remains a bit unclear following his late-season struggles. However, the hard-throwing 23-year-old and fellow former top prospect Robert Gasser are expected to factor greatly into Milwaukee’s pitching plans with veteran Brandon Woodruff (lat) out of the mix. Jose Quintana, Quinn Priester and Chad Patrick are also on the roster as starting options in the best-of-five series against the division-rival Cubs. The other notable development is Andrew Vaughn getting the nod with Rhys Hoskins being left off the roster entirely.

“It’s obvious that that right now he’s not on track as a starter, but that doesn’t mean he won’t be,” said Murphy after Misiorowski lasted just 3 2/3 innings on Friday in a loss to the Cardinals. “He certainly will be in the future.” The 23-year-old rookie makes a ton of sense for Milwaukee as a flame-throwing multi-inning relief weapon, especially with closer Trevor Megill working his way back from a flexor strain. The hard-throwing phenom has struggled his last couple times out and has worked beyond the fifth just once in his previous five starts since August 26.

The rookie right-hander also walked three batters on the night while striking out three. Despite the ample traffic on the bases against him, the Cardinals were only able to scratch out single runs in each of the first two frames. Misiorowski got 12 swings and misses on 77 pitches on the evening — seven on his fastball which averaged 99.4 mph — while posting a CSW of 27 percent. The 23-year-old hurler now sits at 5-3 on the season with a 4.38 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and an 84/28 K/BB ratio across 63 2/3 innings. He’ll try to bounce back and finish the regular season on a high note when he squares off against the Padres in San Diego on Wednesday.

The rookie right-hander struck out four batters on the night while issuing one free pass. He had a hard time keeping the ball in the yard in this one, giving up a solo shot to Ivan Herrera in the opening inning and another to Brendan Donovan in the third. Misiorowski generated nine whiffs on 75 pitches on the evening, posting a CSW of 27 percent. He sits at 5-2 on the season with a 4.35 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and an 81/25 K/BB ratio across 60 innings of work. He’ll do battle against these same Cardinals his next time out in St. Louis on Friday.

Misiorowski gave up three hits, walked two and struck out eight. The 23-year-old right-hander has struck out at least eight batters in two of his last three starts. Misiorowski has a 4.09 ERA and 77/24 K/BB ratio in 55 innings this year. He’s lined up to face the Cardinals at home next weekend.

Misiorowski allowed six hits — one of them a solo homer to Bryce Harper — and he walked one with four strikeouts. He generated 12 swings and misses in 73 pitches, but didn’t have his usual put-away stuff. Misiorowski will be back on the bump against the Pirates on Sunday.

The 23-year-old rookie right-hander allowed four hits and one walk on the night. All of the damage done against him came on one mighty swing of the bat from Gabriel Moreno in the fourth inning. Aside from that, he was terrific. Misiorowski exited with a 6-3 lead and in line for a victory but the Brewers’ bullpen couldn’t hang on for him. He got 19 swings and misses on 93 pitches on the night — 13 of them on his fastball which averaged 99.0 mph — while posting an elite CSW of 37 percent. He’ll bring a 4.33 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and a 65/21 K/BB ratio (43 2/3 innings) into Sunday’s matchup against the Blue Jays in Toronto.

Misiorowski walked three in a row to open the third, with the last of those being an 11-pitch battle against Matt Shaw. He then gave up a three-run double to Michael Busch. Aside from that, Misiorowski retired everyone he faced in his four innings, though since he was up to 78 pitches, he didn’t come back out for the fifth. It’s his second straight down start since coming off the injured list, but based on the way he threw for most of the game, it wasn’t an outing to be alarmed about. He’ll face Arizona next.

Misiorowski gave up four hits, walked three and struck out three. The 23-year-old, who was returning from a shin injury, was removed after 54 pitches during a seven-run second inning for the Reds. Misiorowski gave up five runs, though he wasn’t exactly hit hard as he didn’t allow an extra-base hit. He’ll face the Cubs on the road next week.

Misiorowski is active to make the start Friday against the Reds. The right-hander has been sensational and can miss bats with the best of them, but keep in mind this likely will be a shorter outing since Misiorowski didn’t complete a rehab assignment.

Well, there ya go. Misiorowski will make his return after being placed on the injured list with a tibia bruise near the start of August. The flame-throwing right-hander isn’t likely to work deep enough into the start to qualify for a decision, but he can obviously help fantasy managers with his ability to miss bats and limit the self-inflicted damage.

The 23-year-old right-hander was scheduled to throw a 30-pitch bullpen session on Tuesday. If all goes well there, it sounds like he’ll be cleared to make one minor league tune-up before rejoining the Brewers’ rotation next weekend.

The 23-year-old phenom threw three innings in a simulated game on Saturday that went well by all accounts. Arnold noted that they’ll continue to monitor him over the next couple of days before making a decision. The Brewers could opt to bring him right back, perhaps on a limited pitch count, or they could give him one start in the minor leagues before he returns to the club’s starting rotation.

A good sign that Misiorowski was able to face hitters and throw 60 pitches, for sure. The 23-year-old could have another sim game, or it’s possible the Brewers will have him make a rehab start. The next steps will likely be determined by how he feels in the coming days.

Misiorowski landed on the injured list over the weekend with a left shin contusion after being struck by a comebacker during his previous start. The 23-year-old strikeout machine is aiming to return in mid-August after only missing two starts.
