BREAKING: The SF Giants Sign Justin Verlander to one-year deal

[@INDIE-IRL]

The Giants have always valued veteran leadership. These are the type of moves that establish PRIDE in the franchise and for the game of baseball itself. You really have to view these types of moves in the prism of a much bigger picture. This is about continuing to cement the region as one of the centers of the baseball universe- and not simply a weatern outpost of big league baseball.

Yea he's old but he brings some Much needed attitude.

Attitude but not much pitching at that age . Can't envision him playing a full season.

[@scottmcdonald3345]

Just how fast is that attitude’s fast ball these days?

Excellent move that will help reestablish Giants culture. This is similar to our past veteran acquisitions that have been proven succesful like Bengie Molina, Omar Vizquel, Randy Johnson, Jake Peavy, Aaron Rowand and Tim Hudson.

[@thomasord8636]

Agreed on superstars at the end .. however, Vida has 6 pretty good to good years with Giants. Joe Morgan, and Gary Carter too ..

[@INDIE-IRL]

Daryl Strawberry also won multiple World Series AFTER leaving Frisco

[@kevinvonderscher3971]

That ballpark will help him if he can keep the ball out of the middle of the plate ! The big question is how much does he have left in the tank !

[@ATX49]

Snell was also out of shape when he signed …

[@dough510]

$15mil for a 42yo that will NOT participate in the whole season. Over/under days of the season he’s healthy?

[@alexmyers3000]

Feels like the Randy Johnson signing couple years back… In my couple I mean almost 20… holy shit

He’s 42!..good gawd BUSTER

[@scottmcdonald3345]

Is 42 his age or the speed of his fast ball? 😂

[@MA_808]

Verlander is a stud and brings experience and attitude. The team has lacked character and guts for a long time. Bum will be Comeback Player of the Year. Teams will fear the Giants. Ohtani will be backed off the plate as he should be. A lot of these players who came in at the end of their career were solid contributors.

Better than anyone other than Webb even with a bad year. I like it. And signing a guy like this potentially could bring in other FAs.

He’s there to help with the young guys, not to win the WS.

@@Bootsykay44 exactly. I love this signing. Giant's are likely to bring up some young arms. Even if their time with Justin isn't long, I'm sure he'll have an impression on our current and future pitchers

An old, broken down vet. Good gods.

[@justkeepingitreal2024]

Trust in Buster. If the Giants get 15 starts out of him and his veteran leadership for the young guys, it’s a win. Buster is not stupid so don’t try to pretend we know what’s best for the team, we don’t.
