Justin Verlander Available for Trade
Justin Verlander available ahead of Thursday's trade deadline, according to Jon Morosi of MLB.com. Verlander has a full no-trade clause, giving him the right to block a deal anywhere. The Giants signed the 42-year-old to a $15 million contract in the offseason, but this season has been a struggle for Verlander. The three-time Cy Young winner has made 18 starts and gone 1-8 with a 4.53 ERA, a 1.49 WHIP, and 77:34 K:BB across 89 1/3 innings. While Verlander could still be of interest to teams looking for back-end rotation help, it's likely the Giants would have to eat at least some of his remaining salary for a trade to come to fruition.
