Justin Verlander Forum

NOW WE'RE TALKING.

Collection-wise, this adds another guy who's going to be way too expensive to my needlist, but Mets fan-wise, this is brilliant and I'm super excited.

That's a big move for the Mets. They are smart enough not to let deGrom go and then not replace him. Plus, the 2 predictions I've made on my blog it were him and deGrom, and both were correct! I keep seeing that click bait title on YT saying Judge signed with Mets and I've checked nearly every time to see if it wasn't true.

Great news from a fellow Mets fan.  They really had to do this (or Rodon) after losing deGrom.

I very much want to believe that last year is reproducible... but 39...

Wow,  a rotation fronted by 40 year olds with Scherzer?  It will be really interesting if they can pick up Grienke and Charlie Morton...    As someone in their 40's I'd be cheering for them, haha.  Would make me feel young.  

Which makes things interesting for Mets fans. Both his and Scherzer's contracts end at the same time. 86 mil off the books in a couple years and 2 HOFs retire at the same time. Will be worth it if they win a Series l. Not a Mets fan tho, but have to applaud their all in approach

And just to show the NL East will be competitive again next year, the Phils just signed Trea Turner.

Now I'm 3 for 3 :).

If I got my Christmas wish, both Justin and Max would go back to Detroit. (Sigh)

Too bad for Verlander that he has to end his career playing for the Mets. Speaking as a Nats fan.
