Astros acquire Justin Verlander
Houston turns it up a notch as they enter the stretch run...
The Detroit Tigers have agreed to trade Justin Verlander to the Houston Astros, a source told ESPN's Buster Olney confirming multiple reports.
In 28 starts this season, Verlander is 10-8 with a 3.82 ERA. Since May 30, Verlander has 3.24 ERA with 118 strikeouts in 111 innings.
Verlander is likely to make his first start for his new team next week, when Astros go back on the road.
Verlander, 34, won Rookie of the Year (2006), Cy Young and MVP awards (both in 2011) with the Tigers.
