🔥Jacob Misiorowski reached 200 strikeouts this season in the third inning on Sunday. He reached the milestone in 129 1/3 innings pitched, the 2nd fewest in a season in MLB history.
The only pitcher to do it in fewer innings was Spencer Strider, who needed 123 1/3 innings in 2023.
In general this is correct. What happened today specifically isn’t a salary cap issue - at least not directly. But the Dodgers can give up prospects and know they can replace them in the future with high priced free agents. The Brewers have to have cheap prospects under team control. It’s all still connected.
