Verlander will never pitch in postseason again

[KingKolzig]

Guy is done

Umps can help him when it doesnt matter but not big games

Done

 

[BobbyFK]

Do you think he can get to 300 wins?

 

[KingKolzig]

Guy wont retire so lot of reg season wins next few years. Playoffs no way. All done

 

[livelucky13]

Never betting on him again!

His arms just about done

Can't believe the Diamondbacks were +120 in this game. They had lost their previous 2 games in this series and this was the last game of the series so I could see them being pretty focused.

Add in the fact that the Astros have lost the last 4 games Verlander started along with 3-7 of his last 10 starts.

They have no chance to win it all. Hes a shell they have f.valdez and kikuchi.

I'm on it. Thanks for posting this reminder.

I'm looking for an Angels feeding frenzy. Blood in the water.

lucky guy

Verlander not pitching to badly tonight. He's only given up 2 runs after 5.

I have Angels TT over 4 +120. Maybe they can come through with 3 more runs here.

If he’s smart he does.

Call it a career - give it a year or 2 and then try to pull a Roger Clemens if you can and “unretire” if your arm can take it and go to a contender.

Jim Palmer tried it - but arm just wasn’t there and made mistake of coming out back in spring vs in mid August where the playoff contenders are known and you can pick and choose a landing spot of a team with a need for an arm.

He had a good career - no need to get greedy and try to squeeze a few more million for your agent out of it. Relax - enjoy the time away from the game and if the opportunity presents itself - sign for 40 million pro-rated somewhere in a year or so. MLBPA will support you for not taking a deep pay cut to hang on and you can skip all those meaningless first half road trips.
