Scouting Report
Updated May 19, 2026
Jacob Misiorowski, 24-year-old Brewers right-handed pitcher, has emerged as an elite starter in 2026 with a 13.97 K/9 ratio leading the NL among qualified starters. He threw the seven fastest pitches ever recorded by a starting pitcher (103.6 mph peak) in a dominant 6-inning, 11-strikeout performance against the Yankees. However, he has experienced multiple lower-body injury scares this season: a hamstring cramp in late April that forced early exit from a no-hit bid, and a lower-leg issue in mid-May that caused removal from an eighth-inning warm-up. Both injuries appear precautionary with no long-term damage reported. The Brewers are implementing an innings leash due to his heavy workload (59 strikeouts in 38 innings) and historical concerns about young power arms. Despite early-season struggles post-All-Star break last year (5.36 ERA), Misiorowski is showing significant improvement and consistency in 2026, with Cy Young odds improving from +2000 to +1100.
