Could the Brewers Land Two Left-Handed Versions of Jacob Misiorowski in 2025 MLB Draft?

What might be better than one Jacob Misiorowski? How about two left-handed versions of Milwaukee’s awesome Miz? That could happen in the 2025 MLB Draft. How might they pull it off, and who should they grab later? Let’s go through the first three rounds and see who the Brewers could pick up.

First Round – Pick Number 20 Overall

LHP Kurz Schoolcraft

Schoolcraft comes in at #26 overall on the Brewer Fanatic draft board, but while he might be a slight reach in one sense, he’d be an easy call to make as well. While he has excellent velocity (97 mph fastball) and an above-average slider, he also flashes a solid changeup as pitch number three. The big thing is that he has a smooth delivery and pretty good control, even if his fastball is a few ticks slower than Misiorowski’s. Schoolcraft also is pretty solid at the plate, and could be an intriguing option as a two-way player (think a much better version of the revolutionary Jake Bauers) if the Crew can pry him away from a commitment to Tennessee, but that is probably a minor detail.

Compensation for SS Willy Adames – Pick Number 32 Overall

LHP Jack Bauer

Bauer’s fastball has hit 103 miles per hour, putting it in the same arena as Misiorowski’s, maybe even a little faster. The issue here, as it was with Misiorowski, is control, but Bauer also adds a slider and changeup to the mix, both of which are a bit slower than the fastball. Worst case, maybe Bauer becomes another Josh Hader (a lights-out closer). Would it be risky to go for two left-handed prep arms so high? Yes, but the Brewers did teach Misiorowski (and Logan Henderson) how to control their arsenals to a degree, and that could be a good enough selling point to get him to turn away from Mississippi State and sign with the Brewers.

Second Round – Pick Number 59 Overall

3B Brady Ebel

Ebel is a high baseball-IQ player who has an excellent hit tool and a good arm, with a chance at some above-average pop in his bat. His defensive skill set points to third base, but he might also be an option in the corner outfield spots, given his 60-grade arm, per MLB Pipeline. As a left-handed hitter, he could do well at American Family Field.

Competitive Balance B Round – Pick Number 68 Overall

OF Alec Blair

Blair could be a steal, but it might require the Brewers to either reach a little and draft him higher than some teams might, or go for bargains later in the draft to sweeten the signing bonus. He’s a two-sport recruit for Oklahoma (he also plays basketball), but on the baseball front, he could be a plus defender with excellent offense. That said, he could easily vault ahead of Luis Lara and Braylon Payne as a center field prospect, and offer a much more dynamic bat.

Third Round – Pick Number 94 Overall

SS Colin Yeaman

Yeaman’s a middle infielder with an excellent hit tool, as well as some power that could sneak up. He’s a pure hitter with some pop, and could be the type of player to provide a decent option when the Brewers want to rest players at second base, third base, or shortstop. As a college bat, Yeaman could move up the ladder quickly, providing a solid bench bat for the Crew relatively quickly.
