2024 Player Outlook
2023 Recap: While Verlander clearly has lost a step, he is still one of the better pitchers in the league. He found his way back to Houston and finished the year with a 3.22 ERA. It is concerning though to see his strikeouts decrease to 7.98 per nine innings while his walks jumped to 2.49.
2024 Outlook: Verlander's 4.56 xFIP does create some cause concern and the decrease in strikeouts certainly decreases his value. Between a strong bullpen and run support, wins shouldn't be a problem, and the Astros are not going to push the right-hander in the regular season either.
