With Jacob Misiorowski's grip on National League Rookie of the Year slipping, Trysta Krick and Vaughn Dalzell dissect the "fascinating" race between the Brewers' young arm and ascending Braves catcher Drake Baldwin.
Milwaukee Brewers rookie Jacob Misiorowski has been placed on the 15-day injured list with a left tibia contusion.
The team made the announcement Sunday ahead of the All-Star right-hander's scheduled start against the Washington Nationals. The designation was retroactive to Thursday, a few days after Misiorowski took a line shot to the shin in the first inning against the Chicago Cubs.
Misiorowski (4-1, 2.70 ERA) struggled to close that inning, including a play where his knee appeared to buckle as he fielded a dribbler and threw wildly to first base, but he settled down and retired 10 consecutive batters while throwing 40 pitches over the next three innings.
Misiorowski told reporters Sunday that he anticipates missing about two starts and being ready to go after the 15 days.
Right-hander Logan Henderson was recalled from Triple-A Nashville and expected to start in his place in the series finale with the Nationals.

Nebraska football corner Andrew Marshall generating buzz

Nebraska football secondary coach Addison Williams had high praise for transfer corner Andrew Marshall. Williams met with the media on Tuesday afternoon. Marshall was one of the key additions from the transfer portal. He came to Nebraska on December 25, transferring with two seasons of eligibility remaining. He was a star player at the University of Idaho. The versatile corner played in 26 games, starting 14 of them. He totaled 72 tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss, eight pass breakups, one forced fumble, and one fumble recovery during that time. The 2024 season saw him produce at a high level. He recorded 50 tackles, one tackle for loss, three pass breakups, and a forced fumble and recovery. He also proved his worth on special teams. He tallied eight kickoff returns for 327 yards and a touchdown as well as 14 punt returns for 150 yards and a touchdown. Marshall earned first-team All-Big Sky honors as a corner and honorable mention as a kickoff returner in 2024. Now, Williams is seeing Marshall's playmaking ability, as he told the media on Tuesday afternoon, as transcribed by Justin Frommer. 'He is a pro. He has a chip on his shoulder coming from the FCS. Hes using it as motivation to prove himself.' Marshall's versatility, both in the secondary and on special teams, is certainly something to be optimistic about as a Husker fan. It will be exciting to see what he can do in both areas.

Red Sox's Craig Breslow Takes Shot at Rafael Devers During Roman Anthony Update

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. The Boston Red Sox suffered a loss to the Kansas City Royals on Wednesday but there was a major win behind the scenes. The team announced it reached an eight-year, $130 million extension agreement with rookie standout Roman Anthony. The deal could prove to be a major coup for the Red Sox if Anthony's promising debut extends into the rest of his early career and it offered a clear direction for the franchise after a listless trade deadline and a surprising decision to trade away franchise slugger Rafael Devers. Devers was performing as the team's best hitter when the Red Sox announced that they had traded him to the San Francisco Giants following his public refusals to change positions. At the time, chief baseball officer Craig Breslow defended that decision as one that would instill more of a winning culture in the team. And during the announcement of Anthony's extension, Breslow doubled down on his lightly-veiled criticism of the former star with another shot.

(Photo by Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images) More Cox/Getty "We felt like what was best for the organization at the time was to trade Raffy," Breslow said, per Peter Abraham of The Boston Globe. "And (Wednesday) we thought that what was best for the organization is to come to an agreement to keep Roman in a Red Sox uniform for a really long time." The implication that Anthony is a better long-term solution for the team than Devers might be taken as a little insulting, given that the rookie has just 47 big-league games of experience while the veteran is a three-time All-Star. But after opting to move away from Devers, Breslow seems free to use the more than $250 million he was owed in ways he seems fit. And he made it very clear that Anthony is the type of player he wants to invest in, whereas cutting ties with Devers was the best outcome for his team, despite the success he enjoyed in Boston.
