Topic Announcement: Brewers' rising star, Jacob Misiorowski, moved to Injury List in a schedule adjustment prior to his anticipated start against the Nationals
Brewers' Rookie Pitcher Jacob Misiorowski Sidelined with Shin Injury
Jacob Misiorowski, the promising rookie right-hander for the Milwaukee Brewers, is currently on the 15-day injured list due to a left tibia contusion (shin bruise) sustained during a game against the Chicago Cubs on July 29, 2025. Misiorowski was hit by a line drive, causing him to miss his scheduled start and be placed on the injured list retroactively to July 31, 2025.
Misiorowski, who has been a standout performer this season, had an impressive 4-1 record, a 2.70 ERA (150 ERA+), and a 3.36 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 33 innings pitched before the injury. His impressive performance earned him an All-Star nod, despite his limited major league appearances.
Despite the injury, Misiorowski remains optimistic, stating that he expects to miss about two starts and aims to be ready to return after the 15-day minimum, targeting a comeback around August 15, 2025.
In his absence, the Brewers have called up fellow rookie righty Logan Henderson to start in his place. Henderson, who has a 1.71 ERA (237 ERA+) and a 4.83 strikeout-to-walk ratio in four starts at the big-league level this year, will start instead of Misiorowski in Sunday's game against the Washington Nationals.
Meanwhile, another Brewers outfielder, Sal Frelick, is also considered day-to-day with a reaggravated left knee injury. Frelick's injury is not related to Misiorowski's, and there is no current timeline for his return.
The Brewers, who entered Sunday with a 66-44 record, are two games ahead of the Chicago Cubs in the National League Central. Despite the injuries to key players, the team remains competitive and is looking forward to the return of Misiorowski and Frelick.
