Kash Mayfield, the prospect acquired by the Detroit Tigers in the trade involving Casey Mize, has been placed on the injured list by the West Michigan Whitecaps due to a hamstring injury. The 21-year-old left-handed pitcher has not pitched since July 24, when he was with High-A Fort Wayne. Mayfield, who was selected 25th overall in the 2024 draft by the San Diego Padres, had a 3-1 record with a 3.54 ERA this season.
