The Giants Place Justin Verlander On the 15 -day injured list with a pectoral nervous problem, manager Bob Melvin told the team’s beat after today’s defeat against Kansas City (relayed by Shayna Rubin du San Francisco Chronicle). They did not announce a corresponding movement.
Melvin said the giants are convinced that it will only cost Verlander only two turns through the rotation (via Alex Pavlovic from NBC Sports Bay Area). They can behind the mission of May 19, so he would first be eligible to return on June 3. The mandate of the right -handed veteran in San Francisco has achieved a pedestrian start. It is on average just over five rounds per departure and has collected an average deserved race of 4.33 in 10 appearances. It only withdraws 18.2% of the thick -sized strikers, although its oscillating striking rate of 11.4% or up compared to the fork of 9 to 10% of the two previous seasons.
It is a moderate improvement compared to the last season of Verlander in Houston. He posted an MPM of 5.48 with a percentage of withdrawal of 18.7% in 90 1/3 sleeves. The injuries have become increasingly widespread for the future 42 -year -old renown temple. Verlander started the 2024 season on the IL with an inflammation of the shoulder. He was overthrown in mid-June with a neck problem which was originally to be a minor. It ended up costing him two months.
Verlander was shaken on seven departures after his return from injury to the neck. He granted more than eight points deserved by nine rounds while the opponents have raked a clip .322 / .369 / .483. The Astros estimated that they could not transport it to the list of eliminatory series given the form he transported in October. It was an unhappy end for an illustrious race in Houston. The triple winner of Cy Young signed with the Giants for $ 15 million as a free agent.
The Giants had worked with the same rotation for the first six weeks of the season. Verlander has split alongside Robbie Ray,, Landen Roupp And Jordan Hicks behind Logan Webb. They made an exchange (probably late) of Hicks Song of Hayden birds During the weekend, Hicks pushed to the enclosure of the lifts after posting an MPM of 6.55 with nine departures.
Verlander would have been aligned to take the ball on Saturday. The giants spend a day of leave tomorrow, so that they can theoretically delay their decision on a fifth starter of a few days if they wanted to move Ray since the start of Sunday. They will probably not put Hicks back to rotation for what they expect to be a minimum absence from Verlander.
Kyle Harrison is in the Big League enclosure after working from the triple-A rotation for much of the year. Perspective Carson Whisenhunt Has a dominant ratio of 52: 7 in the stick / walking on nine departures from minors. He is not on the list of 40 men, so the giants may not want to do so yet. Carson Seymour,, Trevor McDonald And Black Mason are all in the triple-a rotation and occupy the list points of 40 men. McDonald started yesterday, while Seymour is aligned to take the ball today, which probably excludes them for a promotion. Whisenhunt launched on Monday; Last Friday from Black.
