Tigers place starting pitcher Casey Mize on 15-day IL with hamstring strain
Video Player CoverPitching has been a major reason for the Detroit Tigers' early success this season, following up on their postseason run last year. But the starting rotation is encountering a setback with the team announcing that Casey Mize has been placed on the 15-day injured list with a left hamstring strain.
Mize, 28, sustained the injury during Thursday's start against the Colorado Rockies after pitching six innings with one run and three hits allowed, in addition to eight strikeouts. According to Tigers manager A.J. Hinch, Mize felt a "little tweak" that was initially attributed to dehydration.
