Jacob Misiorowski is finally getting the respect he deserves in NL MVP race

Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Jacob Misiorowski leads all qualified pitchers in ERA (1.86), strikeouts (247), FIP (2.16), WHIP (0.803), and fWAR (6.5), positioning him to win the NL Cy Young Award. While his dominant season has earned him consideration for the NL MVP award alongside Pete Crow-Armstrong and Shohei Ohtani, pitchers face an uphill battle in MVP voting despite their individual achievements. Only Clayton Kershaw (2014) and Justin Verlander have won MVP as pitchers this century, with voters often viewing the Cy Young as sufficient recognition for dominant pitching performances.
