Garrett Mitchell has often been on the injured list since his major league debut in August 2022, but he has been healthy this season as he and the Milwaukee Brewers go for a three-game sweep of the host Miami Marlins on Sunday.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m just happy with the way he\u2019s staying healthy,\u201d Brewers manager Pat Murphy said of Mitchell, who drew three walks, stole one base and scored one run on Saturday in Milwaukee\u2019s season-high fourth straight win. \u201cHe\u2019s responding after bad results.<\/p>\n

\u201cGarrett gives you tough at-bats. He sees a lot of pitches.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mitchell, a 27-year-old Californian with elite tools, was Milwaukee\u2019s first-round pick (No. 20 overall) in 2020. In 18 games this year, he has an .877 OPS, which is on pace to exceed his career high of .832 from 2022. He\u2019s getting regular playing time in part because center fielder Jackson Chourio and DH\/outfielder Christian Yelich are on the injured list.<\/p>\n

As for Sunday\u2019s pitching matchup, it will be a battle of two tall right-handers with triple-digit fastballs: Miami\u2019s Eury Perez (1-1, 5.40 ERA) against Jacob Misiorowski (1-1, 3.32).<\/p>\n

Perez, listed at 6-foot-8 and 220 pounds, is 0-1 with a 3.72 ERA in two career starts against the Brewers.<\/p>\n

The Marlins are 3-1 this season when starting Perez, although he has pitched past the fifth inning just once. Perez has elite extension and easy velocity, topping out between 98 and 101 mph. He also has a deadly slider, and his confidence in his other secondary pitches appears to be growing.<\/p>\n

Misiorowski, listed at 6-foot-7 and 201 pounds, has never faced Miami.<\/p>\n

The Brewers are 2-2 this season when pitching Misiorowski, who has lasted at least five innings in all four of his starts.<\/p>\n

Misiorowski, who reaches 100 mph with his fastball, was Milwaukee\u2019s second-round pick in 2022. He made his major league debut last year, going 5-3 with a 4.36 ERA in 15 games, including 14 starts, and being selected for the All-Star Game. He struck out 87 in 66 innings, showing off some of the most electrifying stuff in MLB.<\/p>\n

This season, he has 33 strikeouts in 21 2\/3 innings.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, he will be facing a Marlins squad that has lost seven of their past eight, including a season-high four in a row.<\/p>\n

In Saturday\u2019s 5-2 loss to Milwaukee, the Marlins had eight hits \u2014 all singles \u2014 and five came after the seventh inning.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wish I had the magic pill to determine which innings we\u2019re going to do it,\u201d Marlins manager Clayton McCullough said. \u201cI think it\u2019s just the ebb and flow of games.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou will see times when we cash in with runners in scoring position. And you will see games when we get opportunities, and we just don\u2019t come through.\u201d<\/p>\n
