Casey Mize delivered a lukewarm performance in Tuesday's outing against the Pittsburgh Pirates, navigating through five innings with a line that won't have fantasy managers rushing to the waiver wire.
Fantasy Impact
Allowing five hits and one walk while only striking out two, Mize's effort was enough to keep the Tigers in the game, which they eventually won 5-3. With a season ERA now sitting at 4.82 and a WHIP of 1.39 through his first two starts, Mize's fantasy outlook remains tepid at best. Managers should keep expectations in check and consider him a matchup-dependent option until he shows signs of a more dominant form.
