‘He fucks me about everything’

The Milwaukee Brewers they took a late lead and lost their own spring training game against the San Diego Padres in Arizona on Monday, with a bullpen collapse and some defensive mistakes standing out as they fell to 0-4 in Cactus League play. The 7-5 loss won’t matter until the regular season begins, but the manner Jacob Misiorovski and Pat Murphy Loosening things up around camp says a lot about where this club is going mentally heading into the 2026 season.

Misiorowski’s hilarious relationship with Murphy continues to shape the vibe of the Brewers as much as his stuff. The right-hander has quickly grown into both a tone-setter on the mound and a gravitating personality for teammates between starts, which was on full display during the early days of spring.

During an appearance on Foul Territory TV in Brewers camp, the 23-year-old opened up about that relationship and explained how Murphy’s chirping never stops — and how no one in the room is safe from it. Shortly after the segment aired, the Foul Territori account shared his comments on X (formerly known as Twitter), giving fans a quick look at the Brewer ace speaking of dynamics between him and his manager.

Jacob Misiorowski says Pat Murphy “still gives me crap about everything.” 😂

The young ace and back-to-back NL Manager of the Year already has a deep postseason run, heavy workloads and all the scrutiny that comes with that behind him, but the banter has remained a constant. Veterans, young soldiers, position players, and even employees all get the same treatment, and that’s just the way it is Murphy he wants it.

For a staff built around powerful weapons and high expectations, that balance between responsibility and humor has become a defining part of the Brewers’ clubhouse chemistry with the flamethrowing righty in center field. On days like Monday, their relationship becomes crucial, setting the tone even when the results are secondary.

Misiorowski’s ability to make fun of Murphy’s needlework while embracing the standards behind it is exactly the kind of edge Milwaukee believes can carry them through another long summer—and, they hope, back into October mayhem.
