    Verlander is miserable?

    Why is this guy considered the Tigers' ace? Can't pitch worth ****. Giving up more than a run per inning pitched. Defense and streaky hitting saved him in his second start against the Rangers.

    11.25 ERA in 3 starts on the road. Send him down already!

    Long season. Maybe he will turn it around in a big way.

    I use punctuation well.

    Anyway, last season 4-9 on the road. Started the season with >6.00 ERA. Didn't see that... thought i remembered seeing him starting him slow but not that slow. Maybe he's just a slow starter?

    Talk about a pitcher's duel today. Complete bullpen meltdown after a fireworks show. Wish this game was on TV.

    If you want to look skinny, stand next to a fat person. Verlander next to the Halo's pen looks pretty darned good actually.

    Verlander is probably the 3rd best pitcher in the league today.

    2 no-hitters already and just missed another one his last start. (1 hitter)

    Verlander is a nasty pitcher - and arguably one of the top 10 pitchers this year.

    Why bump a two year old thread? Well, two and a half seasons. Ridonkulous.

    Just to show the transformation of Verlander. He went from mediocre to one of the best in the game today.
