Named the ALCS MVP - and deservedly so.
What a resurgence since he joined the Astros. Love watching the dominant Verlander again.

Verlander's career record in playoff elimination games is stellar...3 wins with a sub 2.00 ERA.
Looking forward to watching tonight.

Verlander has three Game Scores of 85 for higher in the postseason. No other pitcher has more than two.

Giles being taxed for 1 2/3 innings and 37 pitches in Game 1 certainly played a factor in the decision.

And then he mowed them down in the ninth.
Tiger Jack, watching somewhere, said I'll be impressed when he comes out for the tenth.
Apparently the deal for Verlander was submitted three seconds before the stroke of midnight. Is that when the Astros, in addition to gaining Verlander, gained Juan Ramirez?

The crowd at Minute Maid noted and appreciated the move. When Verlander finished the 8th, he exited and received a towel and Gatorade at the top of the dugout stairs. I reasonably presumed he was done for the day. Then in the top of the 9th he ascended to the top of the dugout steps and it was like a bomb went off. The crowd exploded as he walked to retake the mound in a tie game. And no one sat down until the Astros retired the side. Honestly I was not surprised that Verlander would want to stay in. But I am a little bit surprised he was allowed to. Good to see the Astros trust the judgement of a veteran who has been there, done that.

I remember Contreras's game, and am surprised by this.
Micro managing isn't a recent thing.

The last previous CG Win in an ALCS game was by Jose Contreras in Game 5 of 2005.

I think his HOF case is pretty assured, but there's no harm in adding more, like a CG 2-1 victory in the LCS, when no other starter goes more than 7 innings in the playoffs anymore, and that is a rarity.

Astros acquired Juan Ramirez as the PTBNL in the Verlander deal. The minor leaguers the Tigers received are higher profile, but Ramirez had a very good season for an 18 year old in rookie ball. 301/385/362 with 11 SB. Daz Cameron (minors), Franklin Perez (minors) and Jake Rogers (minors). Besides Verlander's great run with the Astros down the stretch, his outstanding LCS, and his anticipated quality for the rest of the deal, I wouldn't be surprised to see Ramirez as the 2nd best player involved in the deal long-term.
Despite Verlander's hefty contract $28M for each of the next two years, the Tigers are picking up $8 each year, so it's really not that bad. I wish the Orioles had Verlander for the next two years at $20M/per.
