2025 Player Outlook
After missing all of 2023, Mize returned in 2024 to post a 2-6 record with a 4.49 ERA and 1.47 WHIP across 102.1 IP. The velo on his fastball was up compared to 2021 and 2022, and his spin rates were up across the board. His splitter is a ground ball machine, and his hamstring injury came at an unfortunate time last year has he had a 3.41 ERA across his final six starts before hitting the shelf. While he commands the strike zone well, he is not a make-you-miss type pitcher, nor does he generate a ton of swings out of the strike zone. He's a pitch-to-contact guy who will give fantasy managers an ERA in the mid-4s with a 1.30+ WHIP. AL-only target.
Player News
Casey Mize gave up two runs and walked four in 4 2/3 innings Thursday against the White Sox.
The White Sox swung at 42 of Mize’s 93 pitches and missed just four times. They collected six hits. It suggests this could have been an ugly one had Mize been facing a more capable offense. Since coming off the IL, Mize has allowed six earned runs and 18 hits in 13 innings over three starts. As great of a situation as Detroit is for pitchers right now, it’s probably not time to move on from Mize just yet. It might be soon, though. He’ll face the Orioles next.
Casey Mize struggled in a no-decision against the Royals on Friday night, allowing three runs on eight hits over his 3 1/3 innings of work.

He served up a long solo homer to Bobby Witt Jr. in the opening inning, then the Royals added another pair of runs against him in the third inning on a two-run single off the bat of Drew Waters. Mize got eight whiffs on 79 pitches on the night, posting a CSW of 30 percent. On the season, he sports a 6-1 record, 2.82 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and a 45/12 K/BB ratio across 51 innings through his first nine starts. He’ll attempt to get back in the win column as he squares off against the White Sox in Chicago on Wednesday.
Casey mize struck out six over five innings of one-run baseball while not factoring in the decision Saturday against the Guardians.
Tigers activated RHP Casey Mize from the 15-day injured list.
