The Baseball Writers Association of America announced Wednesday that Brewers ace Jacob Misiorowski won the NL Cy Young award. Philadelphia’s Cristopher Sánchez and Atlanta’s Chris Sale finished second and third, respectively.
Misiorowski, like his AL counterpart Cam Schlittler, won the award unanimously. There wasn’t much intrigue beyond that in either league, as it’s been clear for months who’d take home the hardware. Misiorowski had the lowest earned run average (1.80) of any qualified pitcher in baseball. He threw 174 2/3 innings across 30 starts, overpowering hitters with unprecedented velocity for a starter and huge extension on his 6’7″ frame.
Milwaukee’s star righty struck out 37.9% of opposing hitters, three points higher than any other qualifier in either league. Even including relievers, only Mason Miller was tougher to hit on a batter for batter basis. Misiorowski only walked 6.6% of opponents, firmly putting to rest any questions he faced as a prospect about whether his control might push him to the bullpen. He led the majors with 252 strikeouts despite tying for 22nd in innings.
More to come.
