Current rotation and upcoming schedule

Before the All-Star Game, the 22-year-old right-hander last pitched July 8, delivering a dominant 6-inning performance with 12 strikeouts against the Dodgers, and will return to the mound after his record-breaking All-Star Game appearance on July 15. His emergence as a rotation cornerstone has transformed the Brewers' playoff hopes, with his 4-1 record and 2.81 ERA.

Following his stellar performance against the Dodgers on July 8 – where he struck out 12 batters in 6 innings after allowing a leadoff homer to Shohei Ohtani – Misiorowski has solidified his position behind veteran ace Freddy Peralta. The rotation features Aaron Civale, Jose Quintana, and either Chad Patrick or Quinn Priester completing the five-man group.

Record-breaking rookie achievements

Misiorowski's rookie campaign reads like a collection of baseball impossibilities made real. His 11 consecutive no-hit innings to start his career represent the longest streak by any starting pitcher since 1900, surpassing a 125-year-old record. The streak began with 5 perfect innings in his June 12 debut against St. Louis, where his first MLB pitch registered 100.5 mph, and continued through 6 more hitless innings against Minnesota on June 21.

The velocity numbers tell an equally stunning story. Through his first five starts, Misiorowski has averaged 99.3 mph on his fastball while throwing 89 pitches at 100+ mph. His maximum velocity of 103 mph puts him among the hardest-throwing starters in baseball history. To put this in perspective, he's already thrown more 100+ mph pitches than Stephen Strasburg threw in his entire career, and his 95.5 mph slider is unprecedented – no other MLB starter has thrown more than 3 sliders at 96+ mph in their career.

His 12.5 strikeouts per nine innings would lead all qualified starters, while opposing batters are hitting just .138 against him. These aren't just impressive rookie numbers – they're elite performance metrics that would rank among the best in baseball regardless of experience level.

The All-Star selection

On July 12, 2025, Misiorowski achieved something no player in baseball history had accomplished: selection to the All-Star Game after just 5 MLB appearances. The previous record of 11 games, set by Paul Skenes in 2024, was shattered by more than half.

Manager Pat Murphy delivered the news just three minutes before the national anthem prior to the Brewers' game against Washington, instructing Misiorowski to keep the secret until after the game. "I squirmed all night," Misiorowski later revealed, having to maintain composure while sitting on the biggest news of his life.

Murphy's reaction captured the surreal nature of the achievement: "He's just broken the shell, man. He's just broken the egg and… he's still got gooey stuff coming off him, all arms and legs. There's something special about him." When the news was finally announced to the team, Misiorowski addressed his teammates with tears in his eyes: "I honestly have no words guys. I don't know what to say. It's an honor and, you know, there's a lot of older guys around that have been around for a lot longer than I have."

Misiorowski's most recent outing against the Dodgers may have been his finest yet. After Ohtani's leadoff home run, he struck out 12 of the next 16 batters, generating 21 swings and misses while throwing 21 pitches at 100+ mph. The performance earned praise from Clayton Kershaw, who called it "unbelievable" and admitted "I don't know how you hit that."

The game showcased his four-pitch arsenal at its most refined. His fastball consistently hit 100+ mph, his slider sat 94-95 mph with cutter-like action, and his curveball provided a devastating change of pace in the mid-80s. The combination has proven virtually unhittable, with a 33.6% strikeout rate that represents elite territory for any pitcher.

Perhaps most encouraging is his improved command. After struggling with control throughout his minor league career, Misiorowski has shown marked improvement in strike-zone consistency. His 64% strike percentage represents significant progress from his Double-A struggles, where he walked 15% of batters.

Future outlook and rotation impact

The Brewers' rotation has transformed from a weakness to a strength, with Misiorowski's presence providing both immediate impact and long-term stability. His 6'7" frame with exceptional extension gives his fastball additional perceived velocity, while his high-effort delivery generates remarkable spin rates that create "rising" action on his four-seamer.

Scouting reports consistently grade his potential as elite:

• Fastball: 80-grade (elite) with exceptional extension

• Slider: 70-grade (plus-plus) hardest by any MLB starter

• Curveball: 60-grade (plus) with sharp late break

• Overall ceiling: Frontline starter with 200+ strikeout potential

While Paul Skenes held the previous All-Star record, Misiorowski has shown similar dominance with potentially even more upside. His direct head-to-head victory over Skenes on June 25 demonstrated his ability to rise to the biggest moments.
