Jacob Misiorowski just capped off one of the most unbelievable seasons we’ve seen, landing not only his first career All-MLB First Team award but also snatching up his first Cy Young on the very same night. This dude went from breakout star to absolute legend in a single year, and honestly, the numbers are just jaw-dropping.
Misiorowski: King of the Mound, No Debate
Let’s talk about Miz for a second. His season was out-of-this-world. He didn’t just have a good ERA, he *led all of MLB* with a ridiculous 1.80. A one-point-eight-zero! That’s video game stuff. And if you thought that was all, think again. He also led the entire league in strikeouts, punching out 252 batters. Seriously, who does that? To top it all off, he was the *only pitcher in baseball* to throw a complete-game shutout. The Brewers now have the most First Team All-MLB winners in their franchise history, and it’s all thanks to this guy’s dominant run. This isn’t just a great season, it’s a historic one.
Turang and Chourio: Young Talent Going Off
It wasn’t just Miz lighting it up. Brice Turang and Jackson Chourio also made waves, grabbing First Team All-MLB honors. Turang, the best second baseman in baseball, showed everyone why he’s an everyday starter in just his fourth season. Yeah, his batting average dipped a bit, and he racked up 21 more strikeouts than last year, but don’t let that fool you. The man saw a huge bump in RBIs, doubles, and even smashed a few more home runs. This is his first time on the First Team after making the Second Team a year ago. That’s a serious step up!
Then you have Jackson Chourio, who’s picking up his first career honors, period. This guy is a phenom. He played his fewest games yet in his three-year career at 127, but he still became the youngest player in MLB history to hit 20 home runs and steal 20 bases in each of his first three seasons. Think about that: three straight 20/20 seasons to start his career, and he’s still so young! He wasn’t just clutch this season, he was hitting .291, a career best, and drawing 47 walks. That’s insane plate discipline for a young power-speed guy.
The League is Watching
The Brewers had seven players nominated for the All-MLB team award, with only the Dodgers, Red Sox, Yankees, Rays, and Braves having more nominations. William Contreras also earned a Second Team nod at catcher. What these awards tell us is clear: these guys aren’t just one-hit wonders. Misiorowski, Turang, and Chourio are setting the stage for what looks like a dominant era. This kind of recognition early in their careers? It means the league has officially put them on notice. You know every team is already looking at how to stop them next season.
