Top-5 prospects to watch in 2025 MLB Draft
The Southwest Times Record's Jackson Fuller shares his top MLB draft prospects who could hear their names called early.
Milwaukee Brewers rookie pitcher Jacob Misiorowski has become the latest player tabbed as a replacement for the 2025 MLB All-Star Game.
Misiorowski will join the National League All-Star team after just 25.2 innings pitched over five games. He replaces Chicago Cubs pitcher Matthew Boyd.
It’s the fewest career games ever played by someone named to the All-Star Game. Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Paul Skenes had set a new mark just last season with 11 games played in the first half of 2024. But Misiorowski shatters that.
Misiorowski is 4-1 this season, striking out 33 and allowing eight earned runs.
