Posey: Giants Interested In Re-Signing Justin Verlander
"His season-long 3.75 ERA in 141 2/3 innings pitched is impressive for anyone, let alone a 42-year-old, but his recent work looks straight out of 2009-14. Dating back to July 23, Verlander touts a sparkling 2.17 ERA in 62 1/3 innings."
""Yeah, definitely," Posey said when asked whether his team would have interest in a reunion. "It's something we'll have to discuss, but [we do] for a multitude of reasons. He's been a great teammate. He's helped some of our younger guys learn how to prepare, and he just sets an example by going out and performing, continuing to show up. So yeah, it's definitely something we'd be open to.""
Justin Verlander intends to continue pitching into his mid-40s and has expressed that desire recently. San Francisco's front office, led by president of baseball operations Buster Posey, has interest in reuniting with him for another season and values his leadership and preparation habits. Verlander's 2024 season totals include a 3.75 ERA across 141 2/3 innings, with an especially strong stretch since July 23: a 2.17 ERA in 62 1/3 innings, 23.2% strikeout rate, and an 8.1% walk rate. He has allowed three runs over his past five starts (31 innings) and regularly crosses six innings per outing.
