Mize Pulled for Precaution | Detroit Tigers News

Casey Mize was pulled from his start against the Angels after a comebacker hit his wrist, but manager A.J.

The Tigers, already thin on pitching, are heading to Chicago for a crucial series against the Cubs, trailing by 6.5 games in the division and 4.5 in the wild card race — every game now feels like a must-win.
