Casey Mize Scheduled For Rehab Start On Tuesday
4 months agoDetroit Tigers starting pitcher Casey Mize (hamstring) is set to start for Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday as part of his rehab assignment. This will mark Mize's second start of his rehab assignment as he threw two and a third innings on Thursday and looked solid. The 27-year-old will be set to make a few more rehab starts after that and won't be eligible to rejoin the Tigers' injury depleted rotation until August 30th. Mize posted a 4.23 ERA before hitting the injured list, driven by a subpar 6.56 ERA in May sandwich between solid months in April and June. With the Tigers out of the playoff picture, Detroit will likely ease Mize back into the rotation in September and keep him on a pitch count to preserve his health. Fantasy managers should prepare accordingly. Outside of Tarik Skubal, no other starting pitchers in Detroit's current rotation are viable fantasy options.
