The Detroit Tigers needed some good news, and they received it ahead of the series opener against the New York Mets. Detroit's starting rotation has looked bare as of late, but that could change as early as this weekend for manager A.J. Hinch and the rest of the organization. As reported by The Detroit News ' Chris McCosky, 2025 All-Star starting pitcher Casey Mize is eligible to come off the injured list this Friday. In his reporting, McCosky reported that Mize wouldn't need a rehab start, given he's continued throwing since hitting the IL. Mize went down with a mild right adductor strain back on April 29. Before hitting the injured list, Mize was one of the best starters the Tigers had, posting a 2.90 ERA with 35 strikeouts and a 1.194 WHIP. With all the injuries the Tigers have, getting Mize back as soon as possible seems to be the first step for better days ahead.
