Misiorowski Leads Brewers' Cy Young Contenders

0:00On March 26th, Milwaukee Brewer's fans have plenty to get excited about heading into the 2026 season, especially with opening-day starter, Jacob Misiarowski leading the charge for National League-Sai young honors. The young right-hander boasts some of the hardest-throwing stuff in baseball, tying for 10th in the odds at plus 3,000 alongside Shohei, O'Tani. Last year, Misiarowski averaged 99.3 miles per hour on his four-seam fastball, the second fastest among starters. He fired plenty of triple-digit heat, too, including 31 such pitches in one playoff game against the Cubs. That kind of velocity has odds-makers and experts taking notice. Meanwhile, two other brewers pitchers made the Sai Young Futures list. Brandon Woodruff returns to the rotation at plus 3,500 after signing a $22 million qualifying offer. Logan Henderson sits as a long shot at plus 20,000, building on his 1.78-earn run average

Pittsburgh's Paul Schienz remains the favorite, but analysts like Eno Saras see Misiarowski upsetting him thanks to a new power change-up. The optimism extends beyond pitching, with Outfielder Jackson Churrio at plus 5,000 for National League most valuable player. Prospects jet Williams and Logan Henderson also appear as deep sleepers for rookie of the year, even as they start in the minors. The brewers clearly have the talent to contend for multiple awards this year. You've been listening to Milwaukee Brewer's news today. AI Power Team Coverage
