Milwaukee Brewers Pitching Prospect Makes MLB Debut Against Cardinals

Milwaukee Brewers pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski is set to make his major-league debut on Thursday, according to various reports. The 23-year-old right-hander has a strong track record in the minor leagues, with a 2.13 ERA in 63 1/3 innings for Triple-A Nashville this season.

Misiorowski was drafted by the Brewers in the second round of the 2022 MLB Draft and has consistently shown impressive velocity, throwing hard-throws pitches over 100 mph. He also possesses a curveball, changeup, and slider, giving him a unique arsenal.

However, concerns about his mechanics and ability to command his pitches have limited his ceiling as a starter. Law notes that Misiorowski’s delivery is “violent” and he struggles with average command, which could impact his effectiveness in the rotation.

Despite these concerns, Misiorowski will get the start on Thursday against the Cardinals in a key game for Milwaukee. The Brewers are currently 1 1/2 games behind St. Louis for second place in the National League Central. With a strong pitching staff that is still recovering from injuries, Misiorowski’s debut offers an opportunity to make a positive impact.
