Mize (5-8) took the loss against the Rays on Friday, allowing seven runs (two earned) on six hits and one walk with one strikeout over five innings.
Mize was mostly undone by a five-run fourth inning that included his own error. While he was healthy enough to throw 77 pitches after dealing with an ankle sprain, the 29-year-old generated just one whiff as his velocity was down a tick on each of his offerings. He owns a 3.45 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 96:27 K:BB across 109.2 innings this season and appears in line to face the Yankees at home next weekend.

Padres' Casey Mize: In line to start Friday
Rotowire
Padres manager Craig Stammen said Wednesday that Mize (ankle) felt good after his bullpen session and will start Friday against the Rays, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.
Mize injured his right ankle during his previous start Saturday against the Twins. X-rays came back negative for the 29-year-old right-hander, and after making it through his bullpen session no worse for the wear, he'll return to the bump Friday on five days' rest. In four starts for the Padres since being acquired from the Tigers on Aug. 3, Mize has a 7.00 ERA and 1.56 WHIP over 18 innings.

Padres' Casey Mize: X-rays return clean
Rotowire
Mize had X-rays on his sprained right ankle come back clean Sunday and hopes to make his next start, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.
The right-hander departed Saturday's start against the Twins during the third inning due to the injury, but he appears to have avoided a serious injury. The Padres have a scheduled day off Thursday and could use that break to provide Mize some extra rest by pushing him to the back of the rotation, but for now he tentatively lines up to take the mound next weekend in Tampa Bay.

Padres' Casey Mize: Diagnosed with ankle sprain
Rotowire
Mize was removed from Saturday's game against the Twins in the third inning due to a right ankle sprain.
The velocity on Mize's pitches steadily decreased as Saturday's game went on, prompting his removal during the third. His next start is lined up for next weekend on the road against the Rays, but whether he's cleared to pitch will be determined by additional tests and how his ankle responds to treatment over the next few days. Mize was acquired by the Padres from the Tigers at the Aug. 3 trade deadline.

Padres' Casey Mize: Leaves Saturday's game
Rotowire
Mize was removed from Saturday's game against the Twins in the third inning with an apparent lower-body injury, Dennis Lin of The Athletic reports.
Mize saw his velocity steadily decline over the course of Saturday's start, throwing an 88.4-mph sinker in the third. He appeared to be favoring his left leg while leaving the game with a trainer, and the Padres should have an update on Mize once he undergoes further tests. He ends his outing having allowed four runs on four hits --including three home runs -- and one walk over 2.2 innings while failing to record a strikeout.

Padres' Casey Mize: Six strong innings in first Padres win
Rotowire
Mize (5-7) notched the win against the Guardians on Sunday, allowing no runs on three hits and one walk in six innings. He struck out three.
Mize showed no ill effects of Sunday's game being delayed by over three hours due to rain, picking up his first win as a member of the Padres. The right-hander has been very consistent on the mound for the most part during his time with Detroit and San Diego, giving up two runs or fewer in 14 of his 19 outings on the year. Mize is set to take a career-best 3.18 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 95:25 K:BB over 102 innings into a favorable home matchup against the Twins.
Padres' Casey Mize: Much better in second start for SD
Rotowire
Mize tossed six innings in a no-decision against Milwaukee on Monday, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out six batters.
Mize was hammered by Arizona for eight runs over 3.1 innings in his San Diego debut last Wednesday, but he was much better in his second start with his new club. The right-hander gave up a Christian Yelich two-run homer in the second inning, but that was the only time the Brewers were able to score against him. Mize induced just six swinging strikes, but he still managed a respectable six punchouts and recorded his ninth quality start of the campaign. He's being asked to help stabilize a shaky Padres rotation and is lined up to make his next start on the road against the Guardians.
Mize (4-7) allowed eight runs on nine hits and three walks while striking out one over 3.1 innings to take the loss versus the Diamondbacks on Wednesday.
Mize was traded to San Diego by Detroit on Monday, but his debut with his new team couldn't have gone much worse. The right-hander had allowed just eight runs (seven earned) with a 17:5 K:BB over 21.2 frames in his last four starts with the Tigers, and he hadn't allowed more than five runs in any game this season prior to Wednesday. Mize is now at a 3.40 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 86:22 K:BB through 90 innings over 17 starts. He'll look to bounce back next week in a home start versus the Brewers, and getting some starts at pitcher-friendly Petco Park should be beneficial for him in the long run.
Mize will start Wednesday's game against the Diamondbacks in Arizona.
After acquiring Mize from the Tigers on Monday in a four-player deal, the Padres will waste little time breaking the right-hander into the rotation. Mize had been enjoying a career-best season with Detroit, posting a 2.70 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 85:19 K:BB while limiting opposing hitters to a .213 average over 86.2 innings.
San Diego acquired Mize and infielder Gage Workman from Detroit on Monday in exchange for left-handers Kash Mayfield and Jackson Wolf, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.
Mize is the second addition of the day to the Padres' starting rotation, after the team acquired Robbie Ray from the Giants earlier Monday. The 29-year-old Mize has posted career-best numbers this season, registering a 2.70 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 85:19 K:BB in 86.2 innings. Mize is on an expiring deal and will look to aid the Padres' playoff push and finish the season on a high note with the hope of securing a lucrative payday in free agency.
Mize will no longer start Friday's game against the Athletics as a precaution with the trade deadline looming, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.
There's no trade in place at this point, but Detroit will go with a bullpen game Friday just to be safe. The Tigers are listing Mize as their probable starter for Tuesday's game in Seattle, but the pending free agent is likely to be traded before then. Mize has authored a 2.70 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 85:19 K:BB over 86.2 innings covering 16 outings this season.
