San Francisco Giants right-hander Justin Verlander (pectoral) is dealing with a slight pectoral injury, but manager Bob Melvin is optimistic that the veteran hurler will make his next start, which is scheduled for this Saturday against the Washington Nationals. Verlander showed diminished velocity in his start on Sunday against the Athletics while allowing two earned runs on three hits while walking a season-high five batters and striking out only one in four innings of work. The 42-year-old former MVP and three-time Cy Young winner said his pec issue definitely affected his command in the no-decision against the A's, which won't endear him to fantasy managers looking to start him this weekend. Not only does Verlander have a weak 18.2% strikeout rate this year, but he's walking 9.3% of the batters he's faced as well, the highest mark of his career since 2008.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
