Injury: Calf

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Jacob Misiorowski was named the 2026 National League Cy Young Award winner on Wednesday, according to MLB. Like the American League winner, New York Yankees right-hander Cam Schlittler, Misiorowski won the award unanimously as the most dominant pitcher in the NL this year. The 24-year-old flamethrower went 16-5 with a 1.80 ERA, 0.80 WHIP, and 252 strikeouts in 30 starts across 174 2/3 innings, leading baseball in ERA, WHIP, and strikeouts to help the Brewers win an MLB-best 103 games. The Miz's 6.6 fWAR also led all pitchers, and his 232 ERA+ was the best in a full season since Pedro Martinez recorded a 291 ERA+ in 2000. He joins Corbin Burnes (2021), Pete Vuckovich (1982), and Rollie Fingers (1981) as the fourth Cy Young Award winner in Milwaukee's history. Misiorowski is the first pitcher since Randy Johnson in 2001 to win the Cy Young and World Series in the same season. The 6-foot-7 hurler's fastball averaged 100.6 mph, which is rarefied air for a full-time starting pitcher. He threw more than 1,000 pitches at 100 mph or faster, which was more than double the record Jordan Hicks set in 2018. In his final 24 starts, Misiorowski had a 1.46 ERA to seal the NL Cy Young.

Milwaukee Brewers right-handed pitcher Jacob Misiorowski is a top breakout candidate heading into the 2026 season. He debuted for the Brewers on June 12 and threw five shutout innings against the St. Louis Cardinals, putting the league on notice. He finished the season throwing 66 innings (14 games started) with a 4.36 ERA, 1.24 WHIP, and 87 strikeouts. The key to his success is that he has one of, if not the best, fastballs in the game, which averages 99.3 mph (99th percentile). His fastball held opposing batters to a .193 batting average against with a 32.5 percent whiff rate. Misiorowski had a 32 percent strikeout rate (93rd percentile) and a 29.7 percent whiff rate (80th percentile) in his first stint at the MLB level. His stuff is outstanding, evident by his 119 Stuff+, and his underlying numbers showcase room for positive regression, evident by his 3.56 SIERA, 3.66 xFIP, and 3.41 xERA, all well below his actual ERA. He is set up to be the Brewers' No. 2 starter behind Brandon Woodruff and is currently going 130.0 overall, according to NFBC ADP. RotoBaller ranks him as the 38th starting pitcher off the board. Fantasy managers looking for a high-upside arm should be taking Misiorowski in upcoming drafts.less...
