    • Casey Mize optimistic Sunday injury just a cramp
      Casey Mize said he believes his left leg injury Sunday was probably just a cramp.

      Advice: Mize will undergo tests after grabbing at his left hamstring in the sixth inning today, but the Tigers don’t seem overly worried at this point. If Mize is forced to the injured list, the Tigers could go to Matt Manning at the back of the rotation. Rotoworld Today, 5:37 pm
       
    • Set to undergo additional imaging
      Mize (leg) will undergo further tests on his left leg, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

      Advice: After exiting Sunday's win over the Angels in the bottom of the sixth inning with a left leg injury, Mize will see what the extent of the damage is. In regards to if it was a cramp or not, the right hander said "that's what it felt like" and that he and the team will "see how the next couple of days play out." The severity of his injury will be determined once Mize receives the results of the imaging. Rotowire.com Today, 4:29 pm
       
    • Tyler Anderson hit hard Sunday in loss to Tigers
      Tyler Anderson was lit up for six runs over 4 2/3 innings on Sunday in a loss to the Tigers.

      Advice: Anderson was shelled for seven hits, including a two-run homer by Tigers rookie Justyn-Henry Malloy. He finished with just two strikeouts and only issued one walk. The 34-year-old southpaw has experienced some significant pullback in the run-prevention department over the last few weeks as his ERA has ballooned from 2.47 back on May 29 to a more league-average 3.03 mark by the end of June. He’ll square off against the Cubs on Saturday at Wrigley Field his next time out. Rotoworld Today, 4:04 pm
       
    • Exits with apparent leg injury
      Mize left Sunday's outing against the Angels in the bottom of the sixth inning with an apparent leg injury, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

      Advice: Mize was in the midst of one of his best starts of the season, striking out two while allowing five baserunners over 5.1 scoreless innings before "cramping up" and grabbing at the back of his left leg, according to McCosky. More information on Mize's status will likely come later Sunday or Monday, but if his departure ultimately does end up being the result of cramping, there's won't be much concern for his availability moving forward.

    • Casey Mize leaves game in sixth with leg problem
      Casey Mize left Sunday’s game in the sixth inning with an apparent left leg injury.

      Advice: Mize grabbed at his hamstring a little bit after trying to chase down a foul popup. He is in line for his second win after leaving with a 7-0 lead and one out in the sixth against the Angels. Alex Faedo replaced him. Rotoworld Today, 2:53 pm
       
    • Officially shut down for season
      Triple-A Toledo placed Lange (lat) on its full-season injured list Friday.

      Advice: The transaction confirms that the surgery Lange underwent this past week to address a right lat avulsion was indeed season-ending. Though the right-handed reliever is currently on the minor-league IL, the Tigers could recall him and place him on the major-league 60-day IL if the team needs to open up a spot on the 40-man roster at any point. Per Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press, Lange is optimistic that he'll be back to full health for the start of spring training in 2025. Rotowire.com Today, 12:41 pm

    • On cusp of rehab assignment
      Baez (back) is expected to begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Toledo on Monday, Joe Reedy of the Associated Press reports.

      Advice: Manager A.J. Hinch had previously said June 25 that Baez wasn't on track to return from the 10-day injured list before the Tigers' ongoing road trip concludes July 7, but the veteran shortstop looks like he could be an option to play during the final week before the All-Star break. The Tigers will likely wait and see how Baez responds to at least a few rehab games with Toledo this week before determining his next steps. Baez had produced a career-worst .456 OPS over 196 plate appearances before being placed on the IL on June 11 with lumbar spine inflammation. Rotowire.com Today, 12:34 pm

    • Hitting bench Sunday
      McKinstry is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

      Advice: With southpaw Tyler Anderson on the hill for the Angels, the lefty-hitting McKinstry will duck out of the lineup. Ryan Kreidler will step in for McKinstry at shortstop. Rotowire.com Today, 12:12 pm

    • Retreating to bench vs. lefty
      Wade is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

      Advice: The platoon-happy Giants will hold out Wade and fellow lefty-hitting regulars Michael Conforto and Brett Wisely while the Dodgers send a southpaw (James Paxton) to the hill. David Villar will check in at first base in place of Wade, who went 2-for-9 with a double, a walk and a run scored in the first two games of the series following his return from a month-long stay on the injured list due to a hamstring strain.
