Detroit Tigers likely to replace SP Casey Mize with ‘Big Mike’

UPDATE:

On Friday, news broke that the Detroit Tigers had placed SP Casey Mize on the 10-day IL list with a right elbow strain.

Well, according to a report from MLive, Mize will likely be replaced in the rotation by Big Mike.

Big Mike, of course, is Michael Pineda, who expected to join the Tigers on time to take Mize’s next scheduled start.

From MLive:

Mize’s next scheduled start would have been Wednesday in Detroit against the New York Yankees.

That spot will probably be filled by Michael Pineda, who has been ramping up for the season with Triple-A Toledo after arriving late to spring training.
Pineda’s start with the Mud Hens on Sunday was scrapped, a clear indication that the Tigers plan to accelerate his arrival to the big-league club.

FROM FRIDAY:

According to the Detroit Tigers, they have placed RHP Casey Mize on the 10-day IL with a right elbow sprain.

In a corresponding move, OF Daz Cameron has been recalled from Triple-A Toledo.

Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic is reporting that Mize felt soreness after Thursday night’s game and he is being evaluated and undergoing further tests.

NFL Draft Betting: How Early Will the Top Edge Rushers Be Drafted?

There’s a fairly well-accepted adage that “the most valuable football positions are quarterback and anyone who can get to the quarterback.” We all know that the passing game — both on offense and defense — has become the premier phase of NFL play, so it makes sense that prospects who affect it should demand attention in the NFL Draft. Especially in an NFL prospect cycle with no clear-cut, superstar-to-be quarterbacks, the edge-rushing talent is the show in town for 2022 draftniks.

Edge rusher is also a position you should be paying attention to if you want to bet the NFL Draft this year. FanDuel Sportsbook has player draft position props available for a number of NFL prospects: they give an overall draft slot number and you can bet on whether that prospect will be selected “over” (later in the draft) or “under” (earlier) that pick.

All four edge rushers with draft slot props have lines suggesting they’ll be top-10 selections. Will the top picks be dominated by defensive ends, or will any of these elite edge players slip down the board in the 2022 NFL Draft?

Methodology

I use a combination of data sources, including mock drafts and my own draft pick model to help project players into draft slots. The mock draft data I use sources the “pulse of the people” via Grinding the Mocks and their Expected Draft Position (EDP), as well as an “expert consensus mock” of the nine most accurate mockers over the last five years, per The Huddle Report.
