Jacob Misiorowski unanimously wins NL Cy Young Award

sportsNov 11, 202625635

Jacob Misiorowski was unanimously awarded the 2026 National League Cy Young Award after a dominant season for the Milwaukee Brewers. Misiorowski threw a record 1,115 pitches at 100 miles per hour or faster during the year and capped the season by helping Milwaukee win its first World Series. Voters left him atop every ballot, making him the first Brewers pitcher to win the Cy Young unanimously and one of two unanimous winners this year alongside American League winner Cam Schlittler. Cristopher Sánchez finished second in the NL voting, with Chris Sale and others appearing on ballots behind him. The honor crowns a season in which Misiorowski led the majors in key pitching categories cited by voters, and it completes a rare double of World Series clincher and Cy Young winner in the same year.

Unanimous. Jacob Misiorowski is the first Brewers pitcher to ever win the Cy Young in such fashion. He's also the sixth-youngest pitcher to ever win.

Unanimous and sixth-youngest ever is quite the combination. A season Milwaukee will talk about for a long time.

I'm sorry Ashby didn't get any Cy Young votes this year... Maybe next year? But go Miz! #ThisIsMyCrew #Brewers

My boys first baseball game was his start against the Twins in August. Pretty cool that they got to see him during one of the most dominant seasons a pitcher has ever had. And cool for me too 😂

Youngest since Saberhagen. I always marvel at athletes who achieve great success at such a young age. Misiorowski was 24 yrs-208 days 2 weeks ago. At that age, 99.999% of us were doing meaningless things or trolling on the internet. Amazing contrast.

This is way more people than I thought. But I guess it makes sense considering how few playoff series there were prior to 1995.

I'm glad it's pretty obvious that Cam Schlittler and Jacob Misiorowski are gonna win the Cy Youngs tonight because those are not names I'm very good at spelling when I'm trying to write with any kind of speed.

Last year, before the O's moved the press box, I still sat next to the stadium announcer, and before the game she was looking for Yankees PR to verify the pronunciation of Schlittler's name. I said it was like someone was mocking Hitler. "Hitler-Schlittler" She said that actually helped.

I remember last year some big leaguers took issue that this skinny kid got an All Star spot after only 5 career starts, and a year and a half later he's the unanimous Cy Young award winner. Hell yeah Miz

The season Jacob Misiorowski had was too special to be defined by an individual honor—especially given what the team achieved. On Wednesday, he got a much-deserved individual honor, anyway. #brewers #milwaukee #thisismycrew
