Verlander Re-Signing: Will He or Won't He?

Excellent. Now I don’t have to think JV is a total douchebag.

Very nice. Happy to have JV back.

I hope Correa is next.

Boy, me too. I was ready to go there with you.

So, by offering the QO and having JV refuse it, and thus, putting him on the open market, do we still get the draft pick even though we ended up signing him?

No.

Spoil sport.

No but we also don’t lose a pick for signing a FA with a QO attached to him.

If the Astros get to keep the pick they would have lost by signing a different pitcher who refused a QO, I think that’s a “yes.”

Article today says JV turned down NYY’s $25M offer. That makes me smile.

"Who gives a fuck now, everything you just said above is incredibly lame.

Next year that might work."
