The San Diego Padres have placed right-hander Casey Mize on the 15-day injured list due to a right ankle sprain, according to a team announcement. Mize recently started a contest against the Diamondbacks, lasting four innings and allowing seven earned runs. Jeff Sanders of the San Diego Union-Tribune reported that Mize discussed his ankle postgame, indicating it has continued bothering him roughly a month after initially injuring it by slipping on dugout steps on August 22nd.
