The Detroit Tigers have signed veteran pitcher Justin Verlander to a one-year, $13 million contract for the 2026 season, reuniting the future Hall of Famer with the franchise where he began his career. The deal includes $2 million in base salary and $11 million deferred starting in 2030. Verlander joins a strong rotation led by Tarik Skubal and Framber Valdez as the team aims for a third consecutive postseason appearance.
The Houston Astros are considering bringing back veteran pitcher Justin Verlander for a third stint amid their need for starting pitching depth this offseason. Verlander, who turns 43 in February, had a solid second half with the San Francisco Giants after signing a one-year deal. His past success in Houston makes him an appealing option as the team faces potential losses in their rotation.
