The Braves are in the midst of their first big slump of the season, and no big deal–they just have to try and break out of it against one of the best pitchers in the game. 24-year-old Jacob Misiorowski has been electric from the moment he got called up in 2025.<\/p>\n

The last time \u201cThe Miz\u201d took the mound, he was masterful, tossing a Maddux against the Phillies last Friday . That means a complete game shutout in under 100 pitches. Misiorowski allowed just one hit and tallied 15 strikeouts.<\/p>\n
Atlanta understands their chances against the young ace may be few and far between, so it\u2019s important to capitalize if and when runners get on base.<\/p>\n
Manager Walt Weiss explained, \u201cIt\u2019s a unique look. It\u2019s big time extension with big time velocity, so the ball is on you. He throws strikes, so you\u2019ve got to be aggressive. You\u2019ve got to be ready to fire. He\u2019s a tough guy to have two strikes on you, cause this guy punches people out. When you get something in the middle of the zone, you\u2019ve got to do something with it.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Braves better be prepared to see that 100+ mph four-seam fastball. Misiorowski throws it 63% of the time. Opposing batters this year are hitting .165 against it.<\/p>\n
First pitch at Truist Park in this series opener between Atlanta and Milwaukee is slated for 7:15 p.m.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Braves are in the midst of their first big slump of the season, and no big deal–they…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":730446,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2288],"tags":[46,5,2323,2314,2317,2313,2413,11714,19,2310,2328,2304,2318,2308,2319,4,2305,2303,2421,2327,1039],"class_list":["post-730445","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mlb-postseason","tag-atlanta-braves","tag-baseball","tag-baseball-events","tag-baseball-finals","tag-baseball-games","tag-baseball-playoffs-and-champions","tag-champion-seasons-in-major-league-baseball","tag-jacob-misiorowski","tag-major-league-baseball","tag-major-league-baseball-competitions","tag-major-league-baseball-playoffs","tag-major-league-baseball-postseason","tag-major-league-baseball-seasons","tag-major-league-baseball-teams","tag-major-league-baseball-teams-seasons","tag-mlb","tag-mlb-playoffs","tag-mlb-postseason","tag-national-league-baseball","tag-seasons-in-american-sport","tag-world-series"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":"Validation failed: Text character limit of 500 exceeded"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/730445","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=730445"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/730445\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/730446"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=730445"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=730445"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=730445"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
