Placed on 15-Day IL with Right Groin Injury Following Early Exit

The Detroit Tigers placed Casey Mize on the 15-day injured list Wednesday after he experienced right groin tightness during Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Atlanta Braves. Mize is scheduled for an MRI to determine the severity of the strain. This injury comes at a difficult time for Detroit, as their minor league depth is already significantly depleted. The Tigers' rotation now sits in a precarious position as they navigate a challenging stretch of the 2026 season without their starter.
