I have no faith in Mize, but I want him as an option the next few years.

He's a better option that whatever they have currently at Toledo. And the only starter in the high minors worth a damn is Jobe. You need options and he is a pitcher. You aren't relying on him. As opposed to Tork, who has to play every day. You can't put up with substandard performance from that position.

This is some Hinch word salad.

Via Ken Rosenthal:

2 more years of control making no money...and he has no trade value. I want him starting in Detroit.

That's brutal. He wasn't pitching well at all. But he needed the reps.

Lol the tweet buried the lede on Mize. The Tigers have announced the following roster moves: • Placed INF Javier Báez on the medical emergency/bereavement list • Optioned LHP Easton Lucas to Triple A Toledo • Recalled C Dillon Dingler (#38) and INF Ryan Kreidler from Triple A Toledo • Selected LHP Bryan Sammons (#62) from Triple A Toledo • To make room for Sammons on the 40-man roster, transferred RHP Casey Mize to the 60-day injured list

Flaherty trade incoming.

He was optioned to Toledo...maybe that can change. Either way, they need bodies who can eat innings.

That's what the money is for. Scott Harris is paid handsomely to figure this out. No excuses.

Dingler's defense and framing is more important than his offense right now.

The bad injury luck lineup.

Ryan Vilade recalled.

Looks like Comcast and Bally will have a deal soon.

I don't see it happening until well into next season.

Clase is unfair.

Very nice sendoff performance by Flaherty. Time to make the best deal possible.

The pitching in Toledo is horrendous. They don't have anything down there.

Joey Wentz's flat 90 mph fastball against J-Ram....it ended up in Akron.
