Jacob Misiorowski Fantasy Stats

Milwaukee Brewers flamethrowing right-hander Jacob Misiorowski (calf) was pulled from his outing in Game 5 of the World Series on Wednesday night against the hosting Tampa Bay Rays after stretching his right calf and talking about it for a while with the training staff, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. He was officially removed with cramping in his right calf after throwing 5 2/3 shutout frames with two hits allowed, one walk, and two strikeouts. Misiorowski continued to have problems putting hitters away with the punchout, but the Brewers are on the verge of their first-ever World Series championship as they take a 4-0 lead into the late stages of the game. Wednesday's outing will most likely be his last of this year's postseason, so he will finish with an excellent 1.89 ERA and 1.11 WHIP despite a disappointing 16 strikeouts in 19 innings pitched. The 24-year-old was also nearly unhittable during his first full regular season in 2026, going 16-5 with a league-best 1.80 ERA and a league-high 252 strikeouts in just 174 2/3 innings pitched over his 30 starts. The Miz should be one of the first pitchers off the board in fantasy drafts in 2027.

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Jacob Misiorowski picked up the victory in Game 1 of the World Series against the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday night, allowing only one earned run on four hits while walking one and striking out three in five innings of work. The Miz helped his team get off to a great start in the Fall Classic, but he struck out a season-low three hitters and did not have his typical swing-and-miss stuff going, which has been a theme so far for the flamethrower in the postseason. The good news is that he was still effective while making his longest start of the playoffs. The 24-year-old former second-rounder now has allowed four earned runs on 13 hits with five walks and 14 strikeouts in 13 1/3 innings pitched in his three starts this postseason against the Rays, San Diego Padres, and Los Angeles Dodgers. If the Brewers do not sweep the series from the Rays in four games, Misiorowski will be lined up to start Game 5 of the World Series in Tampa.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jacob Misiorowski did not have his best stuff on Sunday, but he kept his team in position to eventually pull out a 2-1 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 1 of the National League Championship Series. The right-hander allowed five hits and three walks but surrendered just one earned run while striking out five across 4 1/3 innings of work. Misiorowski was arguably the best pitcher in baseball during the regular season, recording a 16-5 record with a 1.80 ERA, 0.80 WHIP, and 252 strikeouts across 174 2/3 innings (30 starts). However, he has not been nearly as dominant so far in the postseason. In his lone start of the National League Division Series against the San Diego Padres, Misiorowski allowed four hits, a walk, and two earned runs while recording six strikeouts across four innings. Both San Diego and Los Angeles have been able to drive up the 24-year-old's pitch count early in the game, preventing him from deep starts.

The Milwaukee Brewers announced on Saturday that right-handed flamethrower Jacob Misiorowski will start in Game 1 of the National League Championship Series on Sunday at American Family Field against the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers. The 24-year-old has been an All-Star in each of his first two seasons in the majors and was excellent in 2026 in his first full season in the big leagues, going 16-5 with a league-best 1.80 ERA (2.17 FIP) and 0.80 WHIP, with a league-leading 252 strikeouts and only 44 walks in 174 2/3 innings pitched across 30 starts. The Brewers limited his workload in the second half this year to try to keep him fresh for the postseason. In his first start this postseason in Game 1 of the NL Division Series against the San Diego Padres, the Miz was not at his best, allowing two earned runs on four hits while walking one and striking out six in just four innings for a no-decision. The former second-rounder from Crowder College can get swing and miss with his elite fastball better than anyone, but he will need to be better against the Dodgers. In his only regular-season outing against them on the road on Aug. 15, Misiorowski allowed just an earned run with a walk and six strikeouts in six innings for a win.

Milwaukee Brewers flamethrowing right-hander Jacob Misiorowski is the team's probable starter for Game 1 of the National League Division Series, with right-hander Logan Henderson lined up for Game 2 of the NLDS, manager Pat Murphy told Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. It comes as no surprise that the Miz would get the ball for the first game of the series against the winner of the three-game Wild-Card Series this week against the Chicago Cubs and San Diego Padres. The 24-year-old Misiorowski finished his first full year in the majors in 2026 with a league-best 1.80 ERA (2.17 FIP) and 252 strikeouts across his 174 2/3 innings pitched over 30 starts for the Brew Crew. He also led the league with a 0.80 WHIP and 13.0 strikeouts per nine innings. Milwaukee kept Misiorowski's innings limited in the second half, but he was still very tough to hit, posting a 2.12 ERA with 17 walks and 85 strikeouts in 63 2/3 innings across his 12 starts. He went 6-1 after the All-Star break. Misiorowski had a 2.82 ERA and 1.12 WHIP in four games versus the division-rival Cubs this year, and he tossed seven shutout innings with no walks and 10 strikeouts in his lone start against the Padres.

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Jacob Misiorowski is the runaway favorite to win the National League Cy Young Award in 2026, as he's recorded a 14-5 record with a 1.95 ERA, 0.80 WHIP, and 236 strikeouts across 161 1/3 innings (27 starts). The 24-year-old had a rare off-night at Wrigley Field on September 2, allowing five earned runs across four innings against the Chicago Cubs. However, Misiorowski bounced back against the Cubs in his most recent outing on Tuesday, allowing just one earned run while striking out nine across 6 1/3 innings. The young right-hander is averaging 100.5 miles per hour on his fastball and has posted a ridiculous 38.3% strikeout rate for the year. Misiorowski has also limited free passes (6.7% walk rate) and power, allowing opposing hitters to log just a 3.3% barrel rate. Heading into the final few weeks of the regular season, Misiorowski remains an elite starting pitching option for fantasy managers.

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Jacob Misiorowski didn't go long in Sunday's 11-2 blowout victory over the visiting Colorado Rockies, but he was still as dominant as ever. Misiorowski allowed just a solo home run with no walks and 12 strikeouts in five innings for his 11th win of the season. The hard-throwing 24-year-old dealt with right-arm fatigue to close out the first half of the regular season, prompting the Brewers to hold him back entering the second half. As he quickly approaches his career high in innings, Milwaukee figures to continue looking for ways to manage the Miz's innings so that he can be of use and at full strength for the postseason in October. The former second-rounder in 2022 from Crowder College threw 59 of his 83 pitches for strikeouts in what was the ninth time in 2026 in which he's recorded double-digit strikeouts. On the season, he has a dominant 1.58 ERA, 0.75 WHIP, and 185:28 K:BB in 120 innings across 20 starts. Misiorowski is still a must-start every time he takes the hill, but his workload restrictions will inevitably lower his fantasy ceiling going forward.

Updating a previous report, Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Jacob Misiorowski will make his next start at home this Sunday against the Colorado Rockies, according to Hunter Baumgardt of FOX Sports 920 Milwaukee. Misiorowski will end up taking his normal turn in the starting rotation for the Brew Crew after recently being given extra rest going into and out of last week's All-Star Game due to right-arm fatigue. The 24-year-old flamethrower returned to the mound in Monday's series opener versus the New York Mets and was limited to four innings, allowing an unearned run on four hits while walking one and striking out six. Manager Pat Murphy said that the Miz was getting his legs back under him in his first start since July 7. After a heavy first-half workload, the Brewers will get creative in the second half in limiting his innings so that he's not worn down for the postseason. Despite a potential shorter leash this weekend, Misiorowski will be an absolute must-start in fantasy lineups against Colorado. In his first start against the Rockies at hitter-friendly Coors Field on June 6, Misiorowski allowed an unearned run with three walks and eight strikeouts in seven innings for his seventh win of the year.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jacob Misiorowski will not make another start this week, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. The Brewers plan to pitch Brandon Sproat on four days' rest against the Colorado Rockies this weekend, giving Misiorowski at least a week between outings. Misiorowski returned Monday, July 20, after 13 days off and was held to four innings and 65 pitches against the New York Mets. He gave up one unearned run on four hits and one walk while striking out six. The 24-year-old was scratched before the All-Star break because of right-arm fatigue, and Milwaukee is not rushing him now. Fantasy managers in weekly formats will get only one start from Misiorowski during the current scoring period.

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Jacob Misiorowski (arm) has been moved up to make his first start of the second half of the season in Monday's series opener against the New York Mets, with right-hander Brandon Sproat being pushed back to Tuesday, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. Misiorowski had his final start before the All-Star break skipped after coming down with some arm fatigue after his latest start on July 7 against the St. Louis Cardinals, so the Brewers have decided to give him an extended break going into the second half. The 24-year-old flamethrowing righty is already at 111 innings on the year after setting a career high in innings with 141 1/3 between the majors and minors in 2025, so Milwaukee is expected to get creative in finding ways to manage his workload from here on out. When active, though, the Miz is a must-start in all fantasy leagues as one of the most dominant arms in baseball. He is 10-4 in his 18 starts and leads the league in ERA (1.62), strikeouts (167), FIP (2.09), WHIP (0.76), hits per nine innings (4.6), and strikeouts per nine (13.5).
