Did you know that when Justin Verlander came to bring a championship to Houston in 2017, some people thought he was WASHED UP? He hadn’t been an All-Star for four years. Some people thought his best years were behind him.
How wrong they were.
Since coming to Houston he has brought home a World Series trophy, led the league in strikeouts in 2018, and this year got 300 Ks for the first time in his career.
He’s odds on favorite for Cy Young.
