Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Jacob Misiorowski is scratched from his scheduled Sunday start against the Pittsburgh Pirates and will also miss the 2026 All-Star Game in Philadelphia. Multiple reports say the move is precautionary, citing arm fatigue and concerns about his recovery from his most recent outing. Brewers manager Pat Murphy is reported as indicating Misiorowski needs rest after not fully bouncing back from his last start. One report also notes that no imaging or injured-list placement is expected.
With Misiorowski unavailable, a planned marquee matchup with Pirates right-hander Paul Skenes will not occur. Additional coverage describes the decision as part of the team’s workload management approach after Misiorowski’s limited action earlier in the season, including a short outing in a win over the New York Mets. Another report states that Misiorowski will not pitch in the All-Star Game or immediately after the break, though the overall message from the team is that there is no cause for alarm. The Brewers plan to monitor his status and workload moving forward.
