Tyson Hardin, a former college reliever, has been named the Milwaukee Brewers minor-league pitcher of the year for 2025. He transitioned to a starting pitcher in his first full professional season, improving his command and developing a five-pitch mix. Hardin, who never pitched more than 60 innings in a college season, made 21 starts in 2025, posting a 2.72 ERA and 96 strikeouts. His success is attributed to his diverse pitch arsenal and precise pitch location. He is expected to start the next season in Biloxi, with a chance to reach Milwaukee by the end of the year, focusing on refining his changeup and sweeper, and understanding pitch sequencing.
