Misiorowski tossed 3.2 scoreless, no-hit innings of relief for Triple-A Nashville on Saturday. He struck out four and walked four.
The 23-year-old righty's second outing of the season looked a lot like his first, when he allowed one hit over five scoreless frames while recording a 7:3 K:BB in a start. Misiorowski -- one of Milwaukee's top pitching prospects -- has proven he can miss bats, posting a 12.6 career K/9 rate in the minors. He also owns a 5.8 BB/9 rate, however. Misiorowski figures to make his big-league debut at some point this season, but the Brewers are still hoping to see him display better control, and that could determine whether or not they give him a chance to start or use him out of the bullpen at the top level.

Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski: Reassigned to minors camp
Rotowire
The Brewers reassigned Misiorowski to minor-league camp Friday.
Misiorowski showed the good and the bad parts of his profile in his 7.2 innings this spring, striking out nine but walking five. The hard-throwing right-hander will begin the 2025 season in the Triple-A Nashville rotation and could make some starts for the Brewers this season, but a permanent shift to the bullpen remains a possibility if he can't throw more strikes.

Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski: Another stellar showing
Rotowire
Misiorowski gave up one earned run over 6.1 innings for Double-A Biloxi on Saturday. He allowed two hits and posted a 10:2 K:BB in the contest.
The 6.1 innings were a career high for Misiorowski, and the 10 punchouts were the most he has recorded in a game this season. Walks have been an issue for Misiorowski, but he has issued just five free passes in 20.1 innings over his last four starts, and that no doubt has contributed to the 2.21 ERA and 0.79 WHIP he has posted over that span.

Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski: Dominates in Double-A start
Rotowire
Misiorowski threw six scoreless innings in a game with Double-A Biloxi on Wednesday. He allowed one hit and posted a 5:0 K:BB in the contest.
Misiorowski was tagged for a season-high six earned runs in his previous outing, but he bounced back in fine fashion by blanking his latest opponent while tossing a season-high six frames. Misiorowski has issued at least three free passes in eight of his 13 starts this season, but he is showing some improvement there, having walked only three total batters over his last three trips to the mound.

Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski: Making mark early
Rotowire
Misiorowski threw five scoreless innings in a game with Double-A Biloxi on Sunday. He allowed two hits and posted an 8:4 K:BB in the contest.
Misiorowski was tagged for four earned runs over 4.1 innings in his first start of the season, but he has allowed only three runs in 19.0 innings since, and since the start of that stretch he owns a 1.42 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 29:14 K:BB. The walk rate and a handful of wild pitches over the same span indicate the control could use some work, but opposing hitters are having trouble making contact against one of Milwaukee's top pitching prospects.

Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski: Resumes throwing
Rotowire
Misiorowski (arm) has resumed a throwing program, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Misiorowski didn't make an appearance after Aug. 15 due to right arm fatigue, but it would appear he's moved past that. The 21-year-old was one of the biggest pitching prospect breakouts in all of the minors in 2023, collecting a 3.41 ERA and 110:42 K:BB over 71.1 innings between Low-A Carolina, High-A Wisconsin and Double-A Biloxi. It's possible he could push to debut at some point in 2024 if he stays healthy and continues to progress.

Rotowire
Misiorowski was promoted Tuesday from Low-A Carolina to High-A Wisconsin, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Misiorowski earned the promotion after delivering a 3.04 ERA, 0.83 WHIP and 46 strikeouts through 26.2 innings (nine starts) this season in the Carolina League. Selected in the second round of the 2022 MLB Draft, the fast-rising 21-year-old is the highest-rated pitching prospect in the Brewers' system.

Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski: Making mark at Single-A
Rotowire
Misiorowski posted a 1.00 ERA, 0.44 WHIP and 14:3 K:BB in nine innings over his last two starts with Single-A Carolina.
Misiorowski has been brought along slowly in his first full professional season, but he has steadily built up his innings, and his last two outings showed why he is thought of highly by prospect evaluators. Misiorowski turned 21 years old in April, so he will have a chance to move up the ranks at some point this summer.
