Wed Jun 25 | 22:39 | Jacob Misiorowski Outduels Paul Skenes to Nab Third Win |
Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Jacob Misiorowski stymied the Pittsburgh Pirates over five innings in Wednesday's 4-2 victory. He gave up two hits and issued two free passes while striking out eight in another excellent outing. The hard-throwing right-hander racked up 13 swinging strikes to register a 35% CSW and threw 15 pitches faster than opposing pitcher Paul Skenes' fastest pitch (100.2 MPH) -- topping out at an eye-popping 102.4 MPH. Few words describe just how good Misiorowski has been in his professional debut, boasting as many hits (three) as wins (3-0). He'll carry a sublime 1.13 ERA and 0.63 WHIP into a road outing with the New York Mets next week. |

Sat Jun 21 | 02:55 | Jacob Misiorowski Takes Perfect Game Into Seventh |
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jacob Misiorowski dominated the Minnesota Twins in his second big league start, holding them to two runs over six innings and earning his second win in a 17-6 thumping. Misiorowski was even more impressive than the final line indicates, as he didn't allow a baserunner until the seventh, where he issued a walk and then allowed a homer. He also struck out six. It was an incredible performance for the 23-year-old fireballer, who was consistently throwing over 100 mph while also mixing in his mid-90s slider. His first two turns in the majors have been all you can ask for, and have already solidified him as a must-start pitcher in fantasy. His next outing will take place next Wednesday at home in a tasty matchup against the Pittsburgh Pirates, and all eyes will be on the rookie. |

Thu Jun 19 | 14:31 | Jacob Misiorowski's Next Start Coming on Friday |
Milwaukee Brewers right-handed pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski will make his second MLB start on Friday in Minnesota against the Twins after having his last scheduled start against the division-rival Chicago Cubs postponed on Wednesday. He'll be opposed by Twins right-hander Joe Ryan in the series opener at Target Field. The 23-year-old is the club's No. 4 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, and looked outstanding in his big-league debut on June 12 against the St. Louis Cardinals, tossing five shutout innings with no hits allowed, four walks and five strikeouts for his first win. Although the Twins offense has picked things up of late, they rank 19th in the league with a .699 OPS entering play on Thursday. Misiorowski has some of the best stuff as far as young pitching prospects and has the upside to be a 200-strikeout pitcher sooner than later. |

Sat Jun 14 | 10:38 | Jacob Misiorowski Expected to Make Next Start |
Milwaukee Brewers right-handed pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski (ankle) is expected to make his next start against the Chicago Cubs. Misiorowski exited his MLB debut early on Thursday after suffering an ankle/leg injury. However, following the game, Misiorowski noted that he felt fine and had minor swelling in his left ankle. Given this update, the hard-throwing right-hander was able to avoid a significant injury. In his MLB debut, Misiorowski was quite impressive, tossing five no-hit innings against the Cardinals. In this outing, he struck out five batters and allowed four walks. Earlier this season, in Triple-A, the top-ranked pitcher in the Milwaukee system performed at a high level, tossing 63 1/3 innings to the tune of a 2.13 ERA with a 1.09 WHIP. During this stretch, he struck out 80 batters. Even though he will have a tough task in his next start against the Cubs, he is worth starting in all leagues given his production at Triple-A and promising debut. |

Fri Jun 13 | 00:28 | Jacob Misiorowski Pulled With Cramps |
Updating a previous report, Milwaukee Brewers right-handed pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski (calf, quadriceps) was pulled from his major-league debut on Thursday night against the division-rival St. Louis Cardinals with cramping in his right calf and quadriceps, according to the team. Despite the cramping issues, Misiorowski dazzled in his debut, throwing five shutout and no-hit innings with four walks and five strikeouts to pick up his first MLB win. The 23-year-old is the club's No. 4 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, and should be able to make his next scheduled start for the Brew Crew. If he isn't already rostered in your league, it's time to scoop him up off the waiver wire. The 6-foot-7, 197-pounder is easily one of the best pitching prospects in the game, with his fastball, curveball and slider all capable of generating plenty of swings and misses. |

Thu Jun 12 | 21:26 | Jacob Misiorowski Leaves Game with Ankle Injury |
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jacob Misiorowski (ankle) left the game in the sixth inning after turning his right ankle after throwing a pitch, reports Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. The young phenom was in the middle of an extremely impressive major league debut, throwing five no-hit innings while striking out five and walking three. The 6'7 righty looked dominant on the mound, featuring a fastball touching 102 mph and a slider at 96. He induced 13 whiffs in the 81-pitch outing. Hopefully the injury is minor, as Misiorowski is one of a small number of pitching prospects with true ace upside. More news on the extent of the injury should be available after the game. |

Tue Jun 10 | 14:05 | Jacob Misiorowski Being Called Up, Expected to Start on Thursday |
ESPN's Jeff Passan reports that the Milwaukee Brewers are calling up right-hander Jacob Misiorowski, one of the best pitching prospects in baseball, on Tuesday, according to sources. Misiorowski is ranked as the 30th overall prospect in the game by ESPN's Kiley McDaniels and has a fastball that has reached 103 mph this year. He's expected to start on Thursday against the division-rival St. Louis Cardinals in his MLB debut. MLB Pipeline considers the 23-year-old to be Milwaukee's No. 4 prospect. Although Misioriwowski's control has been an issue in the past, it's been better this year and he's posted a 2.13 ERA and 1.09 WHIP with 80 strikeouts and 31 walks in 63 1/3 innings over his 13 outings (12 starts) for Nashville. A learning curve is expected, but Misiorowski should be an immediate waiver-wire priority, and he could stick around in Milwaukee's rotation for the rest of the year. |

Mon Jun 9 | 06:46 | Jacob Misiorowski Punches Out Seven in Latest Start |
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski tossed five shutout innings in his last start on June 7 against Triple-A Gwinnett. In this outing, Misiorowski allowed just two hits, allowed three walks, and struck out seven batters. This was a much-needed bounce-back outing for Misiorowski, as he allowed five runs with six walks in his previous outing. Over his last 44 2/3 innings, the hard-throwing right-hander has been one of the most dominant arms at the Triple-A level, holding a 1.81 ERA with a stellar 1.05 WHIP. During this stretch, Misiorowski has struck out 59 batters and served up 19 walks. During this stretch, he only allowed more than one run in a single outing once. Given his impressive production at Triple-A, Misiorowski is nearing his MLB debut and should be viewed as a strong stash option in all standard formats. |

Mon May 26 | 22:52 | Jacob Misiorowski Strikes Out Eight in Four Innings on Monday |
Milwaukee Brewers pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski threw four innings for Triple-A Nashville on Monday, allowing two runs (one earned) on five hits and two walks while striking out eight. The righty needed 87 pitches to get through the outing, throwing 56 of them for strikes. Still, the performance kept his ERA at a pristine 1.60 for the year, while also boasting a 0.98 WHIP and 71 strikeouts in 56 1/3 IP. The Brewers' fourth-ranked prospect (MLB No. 72) has little left to prove in Triple-A and figures to make a debut in the majors sometime in June. The 6-foot-7 hurler is one of the top prospect stashes who could provide solid strikeout totals and would be rosterable in deep 12-team leagues. |

Thu May 22 | 00:18 | Jacob Misiorowski Fans Four in Wednesday's Shortened Outing |
Milwaukee Brewers pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski went three innings Wednesday night against Triple-A Scranton. He allowed one run on three hits and a walk while striking out four. Although the flame-throwing right-hander only threw 54 pitches, he managed to induce 14 swings and misses on 32 swings. Bryan De La Cruz tagged him for a solo home run, but it was an otherwise dominant, albeit shorter outing for the top prospect. The 23-year-old owns a minuscule 1.19 ERA and 0.93 WHIP over 22 2/3 innings in May. Misiorowski is expected to debut sometime in June and is worth stashing in most standard leagues. |

Thu May 15 | 23:56 | Jacob Misiorowski Throws Strong Seven Innings On Thursday |
Milwaukee Brewers pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski threw seven innings, allowing only one run on four hits and one walk while striking out five against Triple-A Memphis on Thursday. He did not factor into the decision. Following up on a dominant outing in his last start with a season-best 11 strikeouts in 6 2/3 innings, the right-hander has lowered his season ERA to 1.46 to go with a 0.89 WHIP. He's also been more efficient with his pitch count as he needed just 86 pitches for seven frames. An encouraging sign for the 23-year-old is his continued improvement in limiting walks. While his 11% walk rate is still not a strength, it's a notable improvement from 14.4% last season. The flame-thrower continued to light up the radar gun, as he sat at 98.3 MPH on the fastball and maxed out at a blistering 103 MPH. MLB.com's number 72 overall prospect should be expected to be promoted at some point this summer and is worth stashing in standard leagues. |

Sat May 10 | 08:48 | Jacob Misiorowski Strikes Out 11 On Friday |
Milwaukee Brewers right-handed prospect Jacob Misiorowski struck out a season-best 11 batters during his outing against Triple-A Norfolk on Friday evening. In this outing, Misiorowski allowed just two hits and one free pass. He did not allow a run. Over his last 23 2/3 innings of work (four starts), Misiorowski has posted a near-perfect 0.38 ERA with a 0.72 WHIP. During this stretch, Misiorowski has served up just six walks and struck out 33 batters. During his first 18 2/3 innings of work, Misiorowski held a solid 2.89 ERA with a 1.18 WHIP. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progression at Triple-A as the Crowder College product appears to be approaching his MLB debut. Given his improved command and increasing strikeout potential, he is a strong stash option going forward. |

Mon May 5 | 23:20 | Jacob Misiorowski Solid Again In Latest Start |
Milwaukee Brewers pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski allowed just one earned run in his latest start on Saturday for Triple-A Nashville despite allowing five hits and four walks over six innings of work. The righty struck out five batters, and perhaps most importantly, threw 92 pitches in the outing, which would be enough to be considered fully stretched out for major league work. The 6-foot-7 hurler now owns a 1.77 ERA, 1.01 WHIP, and an 18.6 percent K-BB% through seven starts (35 2/3 IP), making a strong case for a call-up to the majors. The former second-round draft pick has been named International League Player of the Week twice already this season, and with the Brewers a bit thin in the starting rotation, the team's fourth-ranked prospect will likely be in the big leagues within the next month or so. A 14.2 percent walk rate during his minor league career is concerning and could eventually push him to the bullpen, but he'll likely break in as a starter, bringing along with him a 32.0 percent career strikeout rate, which would make him an intriguing waiver add in deep leagues when he gets the call. |

Mon Apr 28 | 06:43 | Jacob Misiorowski Strikes Out Nine In Latest Start |
Milwaukee Brewers right-handed pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski tossed five shutout innings in his latest outing on Sunday against the Durham Bulls. In this outing, Misiorowski allowed just three hits, no walks, and struck out a season-high batters. This was his second-straight outing not allowing a run. Through his first 29 2/3 innings at Triple-A this season, the former second-round selection has held a strong 1.82 ERA with a 0.91 WHIP. Across this stint, he has struck out 38 batters and served up 13 free passes. This is a great sign as the 23-year-old has continued to build off his strong Triple-A debut last summer when he held a 2.55 ERA with a 0.85 WHIP across his first 17 2/3 innings at that level. Given his steady progression, he should be in the mix for an early 2025 MLB debut. |

Wed Apr 23 | 07:55 | Jacob Misiorowski Strikes Out Eight In Latest Triple-A Start |

Last summer, Misiorowski spent most of his time with Double-A before earning a brief taste of Triple-A. Given his progression at Triple-A, Misiorowski could be worth closely monitoring as he could contend for his MLB debut in the first half of the season. |

Milwaukee Brewers pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski struck out five batters across five innings of one-run ball on Thursday evening. The right-hander allowed just two hits. However, he continued to struggle with his command as he served up three free passes. Through his first three starts of the Triple-A regular season, Misiorowski has held a stellar 0.66 ERA.

Mon Mar 31 | 13:09 | Jacob Misiorowski Strikes Out Seven Across Five Shutout Frames |
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski tossed five shutout innings in his first start of the season at Triple-A on Sunday. Misiorowski tallied seven punchouts and allowed just one hit. He served up three free passes. This was a dominant outing for Misiorowski, who is considered one of the top right-handed pitching prospects in the sport.

Across 79 2/3 innings, he tallied 105 punchouts but struggled with his command as he allowed 50 walks. He then received a brief look at Triple-A, where he tossed 17 2/3 innings to the tune of a 2.55 ERA and a 0.85 WHIP. With Aaron Civale (hamstring) hitting the 15-day IL, the Brewers may turn to Misiorowski sooner than expected. He should be closely monitored in all 12-team formats. |

Fri Mar 14 | 21:22 | Brewers Reassign Jacob Misiorowski To Minor-League Camp |
The Milwaukee Brewers reassigned right-handed pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski to minor-league camp on Friday. The team also reassigned right-handers Deivi Garcia, Easton McGee and Vinny Nittoli, infielder Raynel Delgado and catcher Darrien Miller to minor-league camp and optioned outfielder Brewers Hicklen to Triple-A Nashville. Misiorowski is considered the team's No. 4 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, and will begin the year in the minors after allowing eight earned runs on seven hits (one homer) while walking five and striking out nine in 7 2/3 innings over four Grapefruit League appearances (three starts). The 22-year-old throws hard and can generate plenty of strikeouts, but he's also wild and inconsistent. Misiorowski is expected to begin 2025 at Nashville as a starter, but if he can't improve his control, it's possible Milwaukee will shift him to a relief role as a potential late-inning, high-leverage arm. |
