Casey Mize's Strikeouts Shine, But Tigers Falter
by Matthew Adam | Tigers Correspondent | Tue, Jun 25th 7:31am EDT
Casey Mize struck out 10 but allowed three earned runs on nine hits over 4.1 innings in Monday's 8-1 loss to the Phillies.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite showcasing impressive strikeout abilities, Mize's performance was marred by the volume of hits he allowed, which ballooned his ERA to 4.54 and WHIP to 1.49 for the season. His high strikeout count in this outing is a silver lining for fantasy managers, but his overall inconsistency and high ERA make him a risky play in most fantasy formats. Mize's ability to miss bats, evidenced by his 10 strikeouts, keeps him relevant, but his susceptibility to allowing hits limits his upside.
