Report: Brewers, Miz haven’t talked extension yet

Jacob Misiorowski

MIL Starting Pitcher #32

Player Stats

The Brewers and Jacob Misiorowski haven’t discussed a long-term contract extension, according to FanSided’s Robert Murray.

Misiorowski has made the leap from hard-throwing phenom to top-of-the-rotation force within the last few months, posting a microscopic 1.62 ERA, 0.76 WHIP and 167/27 K/BB ratio across 111 innings over 18 first-half starts. The 24-year-old flame-thrower won’t reach free agency until 2032, but with more teams prioritizing long-term extensions with their top young players, it feels a bit surprising that there haven’t even been preliminary talks yet. Misiorowski is slated to resume throwing this week after being scratched from his final first-half outing due to fatigue. It doesn’t appear to be a serious concern, but fantasy managers should continue monitoring his status coming out of the All-Star break.

Jacob Misiorowski allowed three runs and four hits over six innings Sunday against the Twins.

He struck out nine. Misiorowski averaged 103.4 mph with his 10 fastballs in the first inning, but he was down to about 100 mph later and gave up homers on fastballs of 99.4 mph to Brooks Lee in the fifth and 99.1 mph to Kody Clemens in the sixth. Misiorowski has now allowed nine homers in his last seven starts after giving up just four in his first 15. Fortunately, though, he’s still not really allowing anything besides the homers; he’s given up a total of 11 earned runs in the seven starts. He’ll face the Dodgers next weekend.

Jacob Misiorowski struck out 10 and allowed two runs over seven innings in a 3-0 loss to the Angels on Sunday.

Misiorowski gave up a two-run homer to Wade Meckler, and that was it. He was dominant after that roundtripper, but the Brewers could not solve Walbert Ureña, so it’s a hard-luck loss for the 24-year-old flamethrower. Perhaps just as impressive as the 10 strikeouts are — with 17 swings and misses — Misiorowski only needed 83 pitches to get through those seven frames. He’ll be back at it next weekend against the Twins.

Jacob Misiorowski allowed one run in five innings and got the win in the Brewers’ 11-2 victory over the Rockies on Sunday.

Misiorowski gave up one hit, walked none and struck out 12. He improved to 11-4 with the win. Misiorowski took a no-hitter into the fifth inning before he allowed a solo home run to Cole Carrigg with two outs. He threw 83 pitches. Misiorowski lowered his ERA to 1.58 this year. He’s lined up to face the Angels next weekend and his starts are must-watch events at this point.

Jacob Misiorowski will start against the Rockies on Sunday.

There’s always a possibility the Brewers decide to reverse course, but Misiorowski is tentatively slated to take the ball this weekend. Brandon Sproat will be bumped back to Monday against the Giants. It’s an extremely favorable home matchup given Colorado’s omnipresent struggles away from Coors Field. The 24-year-old strikeout machine went just four innings against the Mets on Monday during his first start since July 7. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status this week, but all signs point to him starting this weekend.

Jacob Misiorowski, who has been dealing with fatigue, won’t pitch this weekend against Colorado after throwing four innings against the Mets on Monday.

The Brewers have set up their rotation so that Brandon Sproat will start tonight and Sunday against the Rockies, which would have been Misiorowski’s normal spot. Sunday’s as far as out as they’ve announced their rotation, so Misiorowski’s next start is a TBA at the moment. However, he’ll probably face the Giants on Monday unless something goes wrong.

Jacob Misiorowski allowed one run (none earned) in four innings and got a no-decision in the Brewers’ 8-3 victory over the Mets on Monday.

Misiorowski gave up four hits, walked one and struck out six. In his first start since July 7 due to fatigue, the 24-year-old flame-throwing right-hander threw 65 pitches in four innings. Fantasy managers can’t complain too much about the abbreviated outing, though, as Misiorowski is lined up to face the Rockies this weekend.

Jacob Misiorowski (fatigue) will start Monday’s series opener against the Mets.

Misiorowski was originally expected to take the ball for the middle game of three-game set against the Mets, but he was bumped up to take the ball for Monday’s showdown in Milwaukee over the weekend. The dynamic 24-year-old flame-thrower will be making his first start since July 7 after having his final first-half outing scratched due to fatigue. The decision sets up a two-start week with an extremely favorable showdown against the Rockies at home on Sunday. All indications are that the Brewers will get creative to build in some breaks and manage his workload down the home stretch so that he’s available for the postseason. It’s a tough break for fantasy managers, but Misiorowski has certainly delivered for them so far.

Jacob Misiorowski (fatigue) will start on Tuesday against the Mets, according to Hunter Baumgardt of Fox Sports 920.

It hasn’t been officially confirmed by the Brewers, but Misiorowski resumed throwing earlier this week with the expectation that he would take the ball at some point during next weeks’ series against New York. The hard-throwing 24-year-old strikeout machine was scratched from his final first-half outing and didn’t pitch in the All-Star Game either due to fatigue. Milwaukee is probably going to have to get creative to effectively manage his workload over the final two-plus months, but all signs point to him getting the ball against the Mets next week.

MLB Network’s Jon Morosi reports that Jacob Misiorowski “is likely to return to the starting rotation during the July 20-22 series versus the Mets.”

Misiorowski had his final start before the All-Star break skipped due to fatigue, and then was not in the rotation announced this weekend. The Brewers have said they will get creative with Misiorowski’s usage down the stretch because he is already at 111 innings this season. He did throw 129 innings between the Majors and minors last year, so we’d expect the Brewers to be comfortable with him getting to at least 140 during the regular season, if not more, so that’s plenty of time for him to positively impact fantasy teams. He may just have a start pushed back here and there to make sure he’s fresh for the postseason.

MLB.com’s Adam McCalvy believes the Brewers are “going to require some creativity in the coming months” around Jacob Misiorowski’s workload.

The Brewers, at 59-37, are in no jeopardy of losing a playoff spot at this point. Misiorowski is already within 31 innings of his total from last year in the minors, majors and postseason. We don’t want to read too much into this — all we know for sure is that Misiorowski isn’t expected to start in the first series after the break, but it’s definitely possible that Misiorowski is managed carefully down the stretch of the season and has lower pitch and inning limits ahead of the postseason. McCalvy writes that Misiorowski is expected to have “an extended breather over the All-Star break and into the second half.” We knew about the All-Star break, but it’s worth noting that based on that quote he may miss some time early in the second half of the season as well.

Tigers promoted C/1B Josue Briceño to Triple-A Toledo.

Briceño is the 54th-ranked prospect in baseball, according to MLB Pipeline. He hit .297/.382/.672 in 17 games at Double-A after being activated from the 60-day IL in July following wrist surgery. Briceño also tallied eight home runs, 19 RBI, and a 16/9 K/BB ratio. He’ll likely need to play first base long-term in Detroit with Dillon Dingler entrenched as the team’s franchise catcher.

Brewers promoted 1B prospect Blake Burke to Triple-A Nashville.

Burke slashed .285/.367/.603 in 96 games with Double-A Biloxi. He posted 30 home runs, 88 RBI, and 28 steals but also had a 102/44 K/BB ratio. The Brewers’ offense rarely has a hitter with this type of power and swing-and-miss, so it will be interesting to see how Burke fits as he rises up the affiliates.

Mets INF prospect Billy Amick went 1-for-3 with a walk and a three-run home run for Double-A Binghamton on Sunday.

Amick came to the Mets in a deadline deal for A.J. Minter and has been on fire since. In his seven games in the Mets organization, he’s hitting .333/.429/.958 with five home runs, 13 RBI, and one steal. He does have 11 strikeouts in those seven games, so swing-and-miss will always be part of his game, but he has 28 home runs in 93 total games at Triple-A this season, so the power is very real.

Moore is hitting .307/.434/.517 in 78 games at Triple-A with 10 home runs, 56 RBI, and 13 steals with an 84/65 K/BB ratio. With the Angels out of playoff contention, it would make sense for them to call Moore up again and give him an actual chance at playing time.

King is hitting .284/.361/.469 in 41 games at Triple-A with seven home runs, 29 RBI, and four steals. With CJ Abrams continuing to struggle defensively at shortstop, it’s fair to wonder if the Nationals would consider a position change in the offseason to ensure a place for King in the 2027 lineup.

Cruz played seven innings in center field on Sunday and will now be evaluated by the Pirates. His results haven’t been great in Triple-A, but if the organization deems that he’s healthy enough to return, we could see Cruz back in the lineup this week.

Since the start of July, Campbell is now 29-for-84 (.345) with three home runs, 16 RBI, 20 runs, three steals, and a 24/17 K/BB ratio. Still just 24 years old, Campbell could very well emerge as an impactful regular with the Red Sox if his recent swing changes continue to produce results like this.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that Carlos Rodón will have “at least one more Minor League rehab start before being activated.”

Rodón allowed three runs in 2 2/3 innings in his first rehab start with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday. His velocity was down across the board in this one, so he will need to make some progress if he wants his next rehab start to be his last one.
