Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski: First to 100 Ks in dominant win
Rotowire
Misiorowski (5-2) earned the win Monday against the Cardinals, allowing one run on two hits and one walk with 12 strikeouts across seven innings.
Dominance has become the expectation for Misiorowski, as the Cardinals' lone run in the sixth inning was the first run against Misiorowski in the month of May. His 12 strikeouts were a new season-high and made Misiorowski the first pitcher to reach 100 strikeouts in 2026. He's posted an incredible 49:6 K:BB across 31.1 innings this month, while allowing just one run on 11 hits. One would be hard-pressed to find a starter better than Misiorowski through the first two months of the season. On the year, he owns a microscopic 1.83 ERA and 100:19 K:BB across 64 innings. Misiorowski is in the 98th percentile or better in fastball velocity (99.7 mph), whiff rate (39 percent) and strikeout rate (39.3 percent).
Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski: Tosses another gem Tuesday
Rotowire
Misiorowski (4-2) earned the win Tuesday against the Cubs, allowing three hits and one walk while striking out eight over six scoreless innings.
Misiorowski continued his dominant run through May, throwing 53 of his 74 pitches for strikes while generating 12 whiffs on 36 swings against Chicago's lineup. The hard-throwing right-hander has now gone four straight starts without allowing a run, covering 24.1 innings with a dominant 37:5 K:BB during that stretch. His elite strikeout ability continues to separate him from the rest of the league, as he now leads MLB with 88 strikeouts while carrying an absurd 39.6 percent strikeout rate. On the season, Misiorowski owns a sparkling 1.89 ERA and 0.88 WHIP across 57 innings and will look to stay hot in his next scheduled start against the Cardinals.
Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski: Penciled in for Tuesday
Rotowire
Misiorowski (quadriceps) is listed as the Brewers' probable starter for Tuesday's game against the Cubs, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
The 24-year-old departed his last start Wednesday versus San Diego due to quad cramps, but it looks like he'll be ready for his next turn through the rotation. Misiorowski has cramped up in two of three starts in May, but that hasn't stopped him from being a dominant force with a 29:4 K:BB and just six hits allowed across 18.1 scoreless innings this month.
Misiorowski left his start Wednesday against the Padres due to quad cramping, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Misiorowski's quad began to bother him while he was warming up for the eighth inning, and manager Pat Murphy opted not to push things after the 24-year-old had already made it through seven frames for the first time this season. Misiorowski has now thrown 18.1 consecutive scoreless innings to begin the month of May and owns a 29:4 K:BB across his last three starts. Assuming his next start doesn't get pushed back, he's lined up to face the Cubs at Wrigley Field early next week.
Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski: Leaves game with trainer
Rotowire
Misiorowski was removed from Wednesday's game against the Padres with a possible leg injury, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Misiorowski struck out 10 batters over seven shutout innings Wednesday. He returned to the mound to prepare for the eighth inning but seemingly tweaked his leg while warming up and was pulled in favor of a reliever. The hard-throwing righty walked off the field under his own power and didn't seem to be in pain while doing so, so his removal may have been precautionary. More details on his status will likely come after the game.
Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski: Strikes out 11 in dominating win
Rotowire
Misiorowski (3-2) picked up the win over the Yankees on Friday, allowing two hits and two walks with 11 strikeouts across six scoreless innings.
Misiorowski made his first start since leaving last Friday's outing against the Nationals early with hamstring cramps. He had his start pushed back this week due to Tuesday's rainout in St. Louis, and the extra rest had Misiorowski looking as dialed in as ever against one of baseball's top offenses. Misiorowski mowed the Yankees down in order in the first inning on 10 pitches, all fastballs of 102-plus miles per hour. In total, 41 of Misiorowski's 95 pitches were 100 mph or faster. It was truly a dominant outing for the right-hander, who possesses some of the best stuff in the sport. Through eight starts, Misiorowski owns a 2.45 ERA and 70:17 K:BB across 44 innings.
Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski: Taking hill Friday vs. Yankees
Rotowire
Misiorowski (hamstring) will start Friday's series opener versus the Yankees at American Family Field, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Despite making an early exit in his most recent outing last Friday against the Nationals due to a hamstring cramp, Misiorowski was able to go through his typical between-starts regimen and appeared on track to take the hill on four days' rest in Wednesday's series finale in St. Louis. However, a rainout Tuesday resulted in all of Milwaukee's starters being pushed back a day, and with the Brewers off Thursday, Misiorowski is now lined up to start the series opener versus the Yankees. The 24-year-old righty will carry a 2-2 record, 2.84 ERA and 1.00 WHIP into Friday's start.

Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski: Remains on track for next start
Rotowire
Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Tuesday in a radio interview that "all things look good" for Misiorowski (hamstring) to make his next scheduled start Wednesday in St. Louis, Adam McCalvy of MLB.comreports.
Misiorowski exited his last start Friday against the Nationals with a right hamstring cramp. However, he reported feeling fine after the game and was able to throw his normal between-starts bullpen session Monday. Barring a setback, Misiorowski should be in line for a normal workload against the Cardinals on Wednesday.
