Mize is a back-end innings eater whose two starts could be decent depth-week pressure relief if he navigates the offenses cleanly.

Mize delivered a solid six-inning performance for Detroit, providing a reliable start and reducing pressure on the bullpen. His efficiency and length help Detroit leverage Meadows’ big night and maintain control against NYY, reinforcing Mize as a steadier fantasy streaming option in favorable matchups.

Mize battled Judge early, snagging a moment of control before Judge’s homer, and was on track for a longer outing before Detroit’s seven-inning deluge changed the game’s trajectory. His return-to-form remains a focal point for Tigers' rotation depth.

Casey Mize faced Judge in the first inning, yielding a splitter for a 1-0 score. The outing highlights Mize’s current role as a key piece in Detroit’s rotation and the challenge of facing one of baseball’s premier power threats. Fantasy owners will monitor Mize’s command and splitter usage as a gauge of his season trajectory.

Mize yielded a run over five innings against the Mets in his last turn, but his prior three starts carried a 7.04 ERA. He faces a potent Yankees lineup in this Tigers-Yankees tilt, making his medium-term fantasy upside dependent on command and Tigers’ offense support.
