Milwaukee Brewers star Jacob Misiorowski has officially won the National League Cy Young Award. It comes as no surprise, as The Miz was the best pitcher in the NL throughout the 2026 campaign. In fact, he won the award via an anonymous vote, as the pitcher earned all 30 votes in the NL. The right-hander appeared on MLB Network to share how he was feeling after the announcement was made.
“This is unreal,” Misiorowski said. “It's amazing… It's an honor to represent my city and my teammates. Just being in this situation is awesome.”
It's been a whirlwind season for Misiorowski. He kicked things off strong by earning his second All-Star selection in only his second MLB season. The Miz then played a crucial role in the Brewers' World Series win. And now, following a stellar season that saw him pitch to a 1.80 ERA to go along with 252 strikeouts across 174.2 innings, Jacob Misiorowski is a Cy Young winner.
So, what has The Miz been doing since winning the World Series following his incredible campaign?
“I actually got the chance a few days ago to hunt with my dad, so that was probably one of the big highlights,” Misiorowski said. “Went to a Chiefs game, so getting to live life just normally now, now that baseball's over for the season.”
The Brewers star was also asked about the people who helped him get to this moment.
