Misiorowski Cementing Ace Status for Milwaukee in 2025

After a flashy but uneven 2024 debut, the hard-throwing Brewers righty has taken a significant step forward this season.

Jacob Misiorowski, 24, burst onto the scene in 2024 with triple-digit velocity and a mid-season All-Star nod as an injury replacement, but finished the year with modest overall numbers. In 2025, he has elevated his performance across nearly every key statistical category, pitching like a frontline starter. His most recent start against the Cardinals in Milwaukee was described as both dominant and impressive. The right-hander's development trajectory makes him a high-value asset in Milwaukee's rotation.
