Overview
- Misiorowski, who takes the ball Thursday at 1:10 p.m. CT against the White Sox, becomes the third-youngest Opening Day starter in Brewers history.
- The right-hander has just 109 days of MLB service and debuted in June 2025 with five no-hit innings in St. Louis, saying this week he is ready for the role.
- Milwaukee reshaped its staff after trading ace Freddy Peralta to the Mets in the offseason and shored up the bullpen by acquiring reliever Jake Woodford from the Rays for minor leaguer KC Hunt and cash.
- Leaguewide, the season opened with Yankees–Giants on Netflix on Wednesday, with NBC and Peacock carrying select Thursday games as the 11-game Opening Day slate rolls out on national and local outlets.
- The Brewers enter off a 97-win, NLCS season, and coverage ranges from local focus on their young arms to national skepticism from Deadspin, which projects regression given the reliance on emerging pitchers.
