Justin Verlander was initially pegged as the Houston Astros' starting pitcher for Saturday's game against the Detroit Tigers, but he was scratched due to neck discomfort.
Spencer Arrighetti, who was supposed to start Sunday, will now pitch Saturday. Manager Joe Espada told reporters that the Astros would be skipping over Verlander in the rotation, so he won't start on Sunday either.
"Been able to kinda navigate through it, but talked with the trainers and the team with the couple off days we had around this, thought it'd probably be best to really try to get over the hump and hopefully resolve this thing for good," Verlander said. Verlander is 3-2 with a 3.95 ERA, 1.211 WHIP, 8.1 strikeouts per nine innings and a 0.5 WAR through 10 starts in 2024. He didn't make his season debut until April 19 after suffering a shoulder injury in the offseason.
Verlander got his start in Detroit, and he played for the Tigers from 2005 to 2017. In that span, he became a Rookie of the Year, a Cy Young, an MVP and a six-time All-Star, going 183-114 with a 3.49 ERA, 1.191 WHIP and a 56.6 WAR.
