    Did they promise him they would be changing their uniforms to add blue?

    Is Verlander going for 300 wins? He's 38 away right now. Why else would he continue playing? He has earned almost $400 million in salary alone... and his wife makes millions per year...

    I can't imagine he wouldn't, he's almost certainly the last guy that will ever have a chance to do it. Would be a pretty cool thing to do.

    Pretty wild that in my life I've seen 5 of the most dominant pitchers ever here in Houston: Richard, Ryan, Johnson, Clemens, Verlander

    Scott was pretty dominant for a year, maybe a bit longer.

    Cole could end up on your list.

    Don't forget Wagner

    Saw Jeff Passan and immediately didn't read the tweet. I hate that bum

    Best of luck to Verlander though. He represented the team well. Hopefully he reaches his milestone. Unfortunately, I think he's done but you never know

    Yes. Pretty sure he's said as much and obviously he isn't hurting for money
