The Milwaukee Brewers announced their 2026 award winners selected by a panel from the Milwaukee Chapter of the Baseball Writers Association of America (BBWAA), led by second baseman Brice Turang, who was named Brewers Most Valuable Player for the second straight season.
Turang’s repeat MVP came after a season batting.268 with 21 home runs, 100 RBI and 19 stolen bases in 151 games. The Brewers release also credits him with a second Gold Glove Award and notes his league standing among National League leaders in doubles (tied for second, 37), runs (third, 102), RBI (sixth, 100) and walks (seventh, 90).
Jacob Misiorowski was unanimously voted Brewers Most Valuable Pitcher, finishing 16-5 with a 1.80 ERA in 30 starts.
