Detroit Tigers: Casey Mize makes big jump in MLB prospect rankings

Casey Mize has been on absolute fire this season, especially since being called up to Double-A Erie last month. Now, last year’s number one overall pick for the Detroit Tigers is receiving some major recognition for his efforts so far this year in MLB.com’s updated prospect rankings.

Mize was ranked as the number 16 overall prospect in all of baseball before the start of the season. When MLB.com released their updated rankings earlier today, it showed that Mize has been moved all the way up to number six.

The jump also makes Mize the highest ranked pitching prospect in all of baseball.
