Verlander: Mets move 'a leap of faith' that 'has paid off'

“I took a leap of faith, and here we are a few weeks later, and I think that leap of faith has paid off,” Verlander said Tuesday during his introductory news conference at Citi Field. Returning from Tommy John surgery in 2020, Verlander went 18-4 with a major league-low 1.75 ERA this year in 28 starts for the Astros. He also got his first win in nine career World Series starts in Game 5 as Houston beat Philadelphia in six games. Verlander, who turns 40 in February, became the 11th player to win the Cy Young Award at least three times. Verlander is guaranteed $43,333,333 in each of the next two seasons, matching Scherzer's annual salary in a $130 million, three-year deal with the Mets through 2024.

Justin Verlander, Max Scherzer and then what? Mets still need more pitching

After the news broke — reportedly, deGrom did not give the Mets a chance to match the Rangers' five-year, $185 million offer — Eppler texted him. The Mets will pair Verlander with Max Scherzer, acquired last offseason, to replicate their tantalizing co-ace formula of 2021. Verlander and Scherzer both are outliers on the aging curve, remarkable anomalies defined by their defiance of the decline expected of athletes entering midlife. The point is not that Verlander, or Scherzer for that matter, won’t each be worth the co-AAV record $43.33 million the Mets will pay them next year. Rather, in order for these “impact” pitchers to be at their most impactful in the important moments, the Mets might need to ration their innings.

Report: Mets reach 2-year deal with Justin Verlander, reigning AL Cy Young winner, days after losing Jacob deGrom

Justin Verlander, the age-defying AL Cy Young winner and two-time World Series champion, is reportedly signing with the New York Mets. The New York Post's Jon Heyman reports it's a two-year, $86 million deal with a vesting third-year option. The already iconic ace, soon to be 40, returned from Tommy John surgery in 2022 with a 1.75 ERA that earned him his third Cy Young nod and a second championship with the Houston Astros. Verlander, who also has the 2006 AL Rookie of the Year Award and the 2011 AL MVP Award on his mantle, would seem to have few accomplishments left to chase. You could argue that baseball's two most dominant starters — Verlander and Jacob deGrom — hit the market together this winter.

What to watch at MLB's Winter Meetings: Aaron Judge, shortstops and trade candidates could create a frenzy

Let’s start with five big storylines and five notable trade candidates. The Aaron Judge decisionAs you might’ve heard, AL MVP Aaron Judge, fresh off a 62-homer season in New York Yankees pinstripes, is a free agent. Even franchise player Mookie Betts could move to second base if Judge were to don Dodger blue. Once Judge and Brandon Nimmo choose teams, the Pirates could be well-positioned to capitalize on Reynolds' desire for a change of scenery. … Hoskins would provide much-needed thump for a whole host of teams, while the Phillies have nothing but thump.

Justin Verlander, Carlos Rodon or a bulk buy? Justin Verlander roared back from Tommy John surgery at age 39 to win his third Cy Young and second World Series ring. Right now, the Mets rotation behind Scherzer goes: Carlos Carrasco, Tylor Megill, David Peterson and Elieser Hernandez. Not committing $35-40 million per year to deGrom might allow them to reel in several options and assemble more depth. Andrew Benintendi, a midseason Yankees addition now on the free agent market, bats lefty and fits the Mets' recent preference for contact hitters.
