Jacob Misiorowski Could Emerge as a Fantasy Ace in 2026
Across 66 innings as a rookie in 2025, Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jacob Misiorowski posted a 5-3 record with a 4.36 ERA, 1.24 WHIP, and 87 strikeouts. The 23-year-old made his MLB debut in mid-June and dominated in the early going, hitting the All-Star break with a 2.81 ERA and a 0.90 WHIP. However, Misiorowski hit some rough patches in the second half of the season, posting a 9.58 ERA in August. Command is an issue for Misiorowski, as he finished his first MLB season with an 11.4% walk rate and recorded a 14.4% walk rate across 97 1/3 innings in the Minors in 2024. If he can't get the walks under control, it will be difficult for Misiorowski to be anything but a drag on the WHIP category for fantasy managers. Still, Misiorowski offers tantalizing swing-and-miss upside. He struck out 31.9% of the batters he faced in 2025 and posted back-to-back Minor league seasons with strikeout rates north of 30% in 2023 and 2024. Misiorowski profiles as a high-risk, high-reward starting pitching option for fantasy managers in 2026.
