Summary

The Detroit Tigers may consider trading All-Star pitcher Casey Mize ahead of the trade deadline this summer. Currently on the injured list with a groin/adductor strain, Mize has a strong track record with a 2.27 ERA this season. The Tigers, struggling in the American League, might opt to move Mize if they decide against extending him as he nears free agency.
