Casey Mize Bounces Back With Dominant Outing Against Yankees
Detroit Tigers right-hander Casey Mize was in top form on Monday night in the Bronx in the team's 7-3 win over the hosting New York Yankees. Mize cruised through seven shutout innings with only one hit allowed, no walks, and a season-high 10 strikeouts to lower his season ERA to 2.63 and pick up his third win of the 2026 season. It was nice to see from Mize, who had allowed seven earned runs on 14 hits (two homers) while walking two and striking out nine in only 10 1/3 innings in his last two starts against the Houston Astros and Yankees. The 29-year-old former first overall pick out of Auburn University in 2018 has kept the good times rolling in 2026 after making his first All-Star squad in 2025. Mize is now sporting a 2.63 ERA, 0.97 WHIP, and 68:14 K:BB in 65 innings across his 12 starts, and he also has a career-high strikeout rate in his sixth year in the big leagues. Fantasy managers should be leaving Mize in their starting lineups for his next scheduled outing against a banged-up Texas Rangers club.
