He threw a simulated game yesterday (Tuesday) and is slated to make a minor league rehab start Sunday. As long as there are no complications, that puts him on line to join the Tigers' rotation next Friday, June 5th.

#18Verlander is getting a second rehab start for Toledo Saturday. He threw 79 pitches in his first start Sunday and is expected to throw 85-90 on Saturday, after which he could be deemed ready ready to come off the DL and join the Tigers' rotation. His velocity was good in his first start as he hit 96 MPH, but his command was not as he only went 2.2 innings, allowing three runs on six hits plus two walks and also hitting a batter.Comment -

#26Justin Verlander (triceps) fanned nine hitters while allowing just one unearned run Saturday in a rehab start for Triple-A Toledo.
He threw 93 pitches over 5 2/3 innings, topping out at 94 mph on his fastball. Verlander struggled in his first rehab start but he looked ready for the majors this time around. Expect the former AL MVP to make his season debut sometime next week.

#29topping out at 94 is gas but not the elite mlb gas ace pitchers need unless they have movement. He will need to become more of a pitcher than a power throwerComment -
