Jacob Misiorowski Fantasy Stats

Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy has said that it's unlikely right-handed pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski will make a start in the National League Division Series against either the division-rival Chicago Cubs or San Diego Padres, according to MLB.com's Adam McCalvy. Since the start of August, Misiorowski had an ERA over 6.00 in his first MLB season, but his fastball also reaches triple digits, which is even more useful in postseason play. Misiorowski is a special talent on the mound, as evidenced by his 11-inning hitless streak to begin his career in Milwaukee when he was initially called up this year. He was never really the same late in the season after going on the injured list after he was hit on the shin by a comebacker. Misiorowski is going to need to throw strikes in whatever bullpen role he's in, whether it be a multi-inning reliever or more of a hammer in high-leverage situations.

Milwaukee Brewers rookie right-hander Jacob Misiorowski is scheduled to start on Wednesday against the San Diego Padres. However, the Brewers could have Misiorowski end the regular season out of the bullpen instead. Manager Pat Murphy said that it's "certainly a consideration" for Misiorowski to work as a reliever next time he pitches. The towering 23-year-old got off to a great start this season after a mid-June promotion, even earning an invitation to the All-Star Game in July, but has struggled in the second half. After spending the first two weeks of August on the 15-day injured list with a shin bruise, he posted a hideous 9.58 ERA in 10 1/3 innings last month. The hard-throwing Misiorowski has been better across four outings in September, though his 4.50 ERA over 20 frames this month is still below average. In 14 starts this season, Misiorowski has gone 5-3 with a 4.38 ERA, a 1.19 WHIP, 84 strikeouts, and 28 walks in 63 2/3 innings.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jacob Misiorowski didn't look like himself on the mound during Saturday's outing against the St. Louis Cardinals. Misiorowski had trouble keeping the ball in the yard as he allowed two home runs early. He wasn't really able to settle down at all during this outing. The right-hander tossed five innings, allowing four runs on seven hits while striking out four batters in the no-decision. Misiorowski has allowed three earned runs or more in five of his last six starts. He'll hope to get back on track in a rematch against the Cardinals next week.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jacob Misiorowski looked outstanding on the mound during Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Coming into this start, Misiorowski had struggled lately with three earned runs or more in each of his last four starts. The rookie right-hander was able to bounce back nicely on Sunday. He tossed seven innings, allowing one run on three hits while striking out eight batters in the win. The hope is that this will help him get back on track down the stretch of the season. The upside alone makes Misiorowski worth rostering in most fantasy formats. His next start will come against the St. Louis Cardinals next weekend.

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Jacob Misiorowski returned from the 15-day injured list on Friday and struggled in a 10-8 win over the Cincinnati Reds. Misiorowski, back after missing two weeks with a tibia contusion, yielded five earned runs on four hits and three walks (with three strikeouts) over 1 1/3 innings. The 23-year-old threw just 28 of 54 pitches for strikes, though he did continue to show off jaw-dropping velocity, maxing out at 101.7 mph and reaching the 100 mph mark 12 times. Misiorowski's ERA climbed by over a run on Friday, going from 2.70 to 3.89, while he also holds a 1.15 WHIP with 50:17 K:BB across his first 34 2/3 frames in the majors. The Brewers haven't announced a date for his next start, but it's likely to come during a five-game series against the division-rival Chicago Cubs next week.

Milwaukee Brewers right-handed pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski (leg) has been activated from the 15-day injured list and will make an abbreviated start in Friday's series opener against the division-rival Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park, according to Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. The Brewers put Misiorowski on the IL as a precaution earlier this month with a tibia contusion, but he'll rejoin Milwaukee's starting rotation without making a minor-league rehab start. The hard-throwing 23-year-old will be on a pitch count on Friday, so he may not go deep enough to qualify for a win, but he should still be in consideration for starting fantasy lineups given how dominant he's been early in his career. In his first seven MLB starts, he has recorded a 2.70 ERA, 0.96 WHIP, 47 strikeouts and 14 walks in 33 1/3 innings.

The Milwaukee Brewers said that right-handed pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski (leg) will pitch Friday in either a shorter big-league outing against the division-rival Cincinnati Reds or in a minor-league rehab game, according to Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Misiorowski traveled with the team to Cincinnati, so he's firmly in the mix to come off the 15-day injured list to start Friday's series opener at Great American Ball Park. The 23-year-old hard-throwing right-hander is one of the best young arms in baseball and has gone 4-1 with a 2.70 ERA, 0.96 WHIP, 47 strikeouts and 14 walks in 33 1/3 innings pitched over his first seven big-league starts. Although Miz would be in line for a shorter outing if he faces the Reds on Friday, his high-end strikeout upside would still make him a candidate for starting fantasy lineups.

Milwaukee Brewers young star Jacob Misiorowski (tibia) is scheduled to throw a 30-pitch bullpen session on Tuesday and could begin a rehab assignment as soon as Friday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. Misiorowski injured his leg when Seiya Suzuki hit a comebacker that struck Misiorowski's leg on July 28. He was diagnosed with a tibia contusion and appears to be heading in the right direction, and hasn't experienced any setbacks, as the swelling has gone down. Given his short stint on the IL, it appears likely he will require just one rehab start before joining the Brewers' rotation sometime next week. Misiorowski continues to be a must-start in all fantasy baseball formats, with his 2.70 ERA, 0.96 WHIP, and 36.7 percent strikeout rate. This minor setback should not limit his ceiling in any way.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jacob Misiorowski (tibia) could require a rehab start, but it is still to be decided, reports Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. General manager Matt Arnold stated that they are still analyzing the situation and will make a decision within the next few days. Misiorowski most recently tossed 60 pitches during three simulated innings, so building up his arm seemingly isn't much of a concern. The 23-year-old landed on the injured list with a tibia contusion, an injury that is considered very minor. The young phenom posted a 2.70 ERA and 0.96 WHIP with 47 strikeouts in 33 innings prior to the injury, and he figures to be a key part of Milwaukee's rotation for the stretch run.

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Jacob Misiorowski (leg) faced hitters over three simulated innings and threw approximately 60 pitches on Saturday. Misiorowski said he felt great afterward and expects to come off the 15-day injured list when he's eligible on Aug. 15, according to the team. Misiorowski landed on the IL on Aug. 3 (retroactive to July 31) with a contusion in his left tibia, an injury that has temporarily interrupted an exhilarating start to his career. The 23-year-old flamethrower has logged 33 1/3 innings over seven starts and gone 4-1 with a 2.70 ERA, a .96 WHIP, and 47 strikeouts against 14 walks.
