DETROIT — Tigers manager A.J. Hinch has talked for weeks about watching Casey Mize’s innings for a stretch at some point this summer. On Friday, as Mize ended his third inning by striking out Yasmani Grandal on a nasty curveball for his 56th and final pitch of the night, the plan became operational. From a
We hear from manager A.J. Hinch after his Tigers drop an 8-2 decision to the White Sox on Friday night at Comerica Park. #Leinenkugels
Detroit Tigers starter Casey Mize did not return to the mound for the fourth inning. The 24-year-old rookie wasn’t injured, and he wasn’t chased by the American League Central-leading Chicago White Sox. Rather, Mize’s start Friday marked the first outing of his innings restrictions — given to many young pitchers league-wide in an effort to protect their arms,
Detroit — The governor’s in the house. No, not that one. The dreaded but inevitable workload governor is in session for rookie right-hander Casey Mize, who was pulled after three innings Friday in the Tigers’ 8-2 loss to the Chicago White Sox at Comerica Park. Tigers manager AJ Hinch said before the game that Mize would stay on turn

DETROIT – Derek Hill’s latest stint with the Tigers was always going to be a short one. By rule, the team had to send him down after he served as an extra player for Wednesday’s doubleheader sweep in Cleveland, no matter how well he did. Because he’d been optioned to Triple-A Toledo earlier in the
Detroit — It’s not really a competition. They are teammates, they are pulling the rope in the same direction. But it’s kind of a competition. Eventually, manager AJ Hinch will sort out which of his young, athletically gifted outfielders is best suited for center field (in the absence of Derek Hill). But for now Akil Baddoo

Detroit Tigers plays of the month
Not every draft has an unquestionable top player among its entrants. The Tigers were lucky that Casey Mize separated himself from the pack in 2018, but there wasn’t quite as much consensus in 2020 when they took Spencer Torkelson in the top spot. Even on draft day there were still some who believed that Austin
Each year more and more folks seem to understand it’s not just the NFL, NBA, and NHL that offer draft-day drama. The MLB Draft has been late to the game, in the public’s consciousness anyway, but now that it has picked up audience and relevance, expect a free-wheeling, hip-shooting, let’s-take-a-stab first round that gets rolling
Toledo Mud Hens 4, Columbus Clippers 2 (box) Ricardo Pinto and Heath Fillmyer locked into a prolonged duel in this one, but the Hens eventually broke through late to win on Thursday night. Pinto tossed seven innings of scoreless ball with seven strikeouts, allowing just three hits and two walks. Meanwhile, Mr. Fillmyer got the
Since the beginning of June, Miguel Cabrera has (kind of) turned back the clock. He isn’t drawing a ton of walks. He still strikes out too much. And his power, for the most part, hasn’t shown up until recently: He cranked two home runs — Nos. 493 and 494 of his 19-year career — to help the
