Casey Mize Lands on 15-Day IL, Tigers Rotation Takes Significant Hit
Detroit Tigers right-hander Casey Mize (groin) has been placed on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to May 28, due to right groin tightness. Manager A.J. Hinch indicated the move was precautionary, noting that Mize requires a slower week as he works through the issue. The 29-year-old has been one of Detroit's most reliable starters in 2026, posting a 2.27 ERA, 0.97 WHIP, and 49 strikeouts across 47 2/3 innings in nine starts. Mize has been especially dominant lately, recording a 1.45 ERA over his last seven outings after a difficult start to the season. While the injury does not appear serious, his absence leaves a noticeable void in the Tigers' rotation. The former No. 1 overall pick has emerged as a key contributor in his sixth season in Detroit.
