Brewers right-hander Jacob Misiorowski has been unanimously selected as the National League’s top pitcher for the 2026 season.

The 24-year-old received all 30 first-place votes after putting together a remarkable season.

Misiorowski finished with a 16-and-5 record, a major-league-best 1.80 earned run average and 252 strikeouts in just over 174 innings.

He also led baseball in opponents’ batting average and WHIP, which measures walks and hits allowed per inning.

His fastball regularly reached triple digits, and he topped out at 105.5 miles per hour during the season.

Misiorowski becomes just the fourth pitcher in Brewers franchise history to win the award, joining Rollie Fingers, Pete Vuckovich and Corbin Burnes.

It’s another major achievement in what’s been a historic year for Milwaukee, following the Brewers’ World Series championship over Tampa Bay.
