Mize escaped with a no-decision in Tuesday's 12-2 rout of the Diamondbacks, giving up two runs (one earned) on three hits and three walks over just 1.2 innings. He struck out two.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander couldn't stick around long enough to benefit from the Tigers' offensive fireworks, throwing just 33 of 59 pitches for strikes before getting the hook in his shortest outing of the season. Mize has looked gassed over his last three starts, surrendering 13 runs (11 earned) in only 8.2 innings to send his ERA shooting up from 2.63 to 3.43, and his recent struggles may put pressure on the Detroit front office to further bolster the rotation at the trade deadline after acquiring Chris Paddack from Minnesota. Mize will try to find his prior form in his next start, which lines up to come at home early next week against those same Twins.

Mize is slated to make his next start Tuesday's against the Diamondbacks in Detroit, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mize was originally expected to start Monday's series opener, but he'll be pushed back a day in the schedule as a precaution after minor knee soreness resulted in his between-starts throwing program being delayed a bit. The right-hander's knee isn't expected to be a concern heading into his start Tuesday, when he'll look to get back on track after allowing 10 runs over seven innings in his last two outings.

Mize (9-4) took the loss Tuesday as the Tigers were downed 8-5 by the Pirates, coughing up five runs (four earned) on 10 hits and a walk over four innings. He struck out five.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander tossed 62 of his 86 pitches for strikes and managed to keep the ball in the yard, but Mize still allowed far too much loud contact as six of the 10 hits off him wound up turning into doubles. He's been tagged for 11 runs (10 earned) over his last two starts, but Mize still sports a 3.40 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 82:23 K:BB through 92.2 inning on the year. He'll look to turn things around in his next outing, which is scheduled to come at home early next week against the Diamondbacks.

Mize (9-3) took the loss after throwing three innings, allowing six runs and one walk while striking out four, during Saturday's 15-7 loss to the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
In his last start before the All-Star break, Mize had a rare rough outing, lasting a season-low three innings and allowing a season-high six runs. It snaps a streak of nine straight starts allowing three runs or fewer for the right-hander. The 28-year-old will still enter the All-Star break with great numbers, posting a 3.15 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 77 strikeouts in 88.2 innings pitched.

Mize (9-2) struck out four and allowed four hits and two walks over seven shutout innings to earn the win Saturday against the Guardians.
EDGE Analysis
It's the third seven-inning outing of the season for Mize, though Saturday's performance was his first scoreless appearance since his season debut April 1 in Seattle. After posting a 4.49 ERA in 22 regular-season outings last year, the right-hander has turned into a key rotation piece for Detroit in 2025 with a 2.63 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 73:21 K:BB across 85.2 innings.

Mize (8-2) picked up the win in Saturday's 10-5 victory over the Twins, giving up two runs on five hits and a walk over 6.2 innings. He struck out five.
EDGE Analysis
The Tigers' offense was relentless on the afternoon, putting at least one run on the board in seven straight innings as part of a 15-hit, four-homer attack, giving Mize more than enough cushion. The quality start was his fifth of the season, and since coming off the IL in late May, the right-hander has allowed three runs or fewer in seven straight trips to the mound -- a stretch in which he's delivered a 3.25 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 34:10 K:BB in 36 innings. Mize will look to keep rolling in his next outing, which is scheduled to come on the road next weekend in Cleveland.

Mize (leg) is listed as the Tigers' starting pitcher for Saturday's game against the Twins, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mize was removed from his most recent start Sunday against the Rays due to cramping in his right leg, but he has recovered fine and is ready to roll for his next turn in the rotation. The right-hander has yielded two earned runs or fewer in each of his last four starts, although he's reached the six-inning mark on just one occasion during that stretch.

Manager A.J. Hinch said Mize was removed Sunday's 9-3 win over the Rays due to right leg cramping, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old took a no-decision and allowed one run on six hits with five strikeouts and no walks across five frames before departing one batter into the sixth inning, but he's not dealing with a significant injury. Mize should be fine to make his next turn through the rotation next weekend versus Minnesota, assuming he experiences no additional issues when he tosses his between-starts bullpen session in the next few days.

Mize was removed from Sunday's game against the Rays due to an apparent right leg injury, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander was visited by the training staff after throwing a 92-mile-per-hour fastball -- more than two ticks below his season average -- during the sixth inning, and he left the game after appearing to flex his right leg. The specifics of the injury are unclear, and Mize's status should be updated by the team in the near future. Before exiting while the game was tied 1-1, MIze struck out five and was charged with one earned run on six hits and no walks over five innings.

Mize (7-2) picked up the win Tuesday, giving up three runs (two earned) on five hits over six innings in a 7-3 victory over the Pirates. He struck out four without walking a batter.
EDGE Analysis
The Tigers slugged four homers on the night, giving Mize more than enough run support as he recorded his first win and first quality start since returning from the IL in late May. Over five outings since recovering from a hamstring strain, the right-hander has produced a 3.70 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 24:9 K:BB through 24.1 innings. Mize will look to build on this performance in his next trip to the mound, which is scheduled to come on the road this weekend in Tampa Bay.
