Casey Mize Back on Track | San Diego Padres News

Casey Mize bounced back from a scary dugout tumble with a taped ankle, throwing a bullpen without issue and set to pitch Friday in Tampa Bay—thanks to a team off-day, no rotation disruption. His velocity dipped after slipping last Saturday, but rest and support from the Padres have him feeling confident again. The team’s cautious, day-by-day approach helped ease his nerves. Meanwhile, Jeremiah Estrada went on the injured list with a shoulder issue, his third IL stint this year; David Morgan was recalled to fill the spot. On the rehab front, Nick Pivetta tossed three innings in a minor league game, heading to Arizona next, while Joe Musgrove prepares for what could be his final rehab start Thursday, aiming to return to the rotation in early September.
