| Justin Verlander gets little support in no-decision |
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com
(6/12/13) Tigers starting pitcher Justin Verlander tossed a gem Wednesday, his fourth straight start with at least seven innings pitched. Unfortunately, the team's bullpen could not make a 2-0 lead stand up late, snapping his four-game winning streak.
Verlander took a no-decision despite leaving with a lead, after holding the Royals scoreless in seven strong innings. Verlander allowed three hits, all singles, and two walks in the game, while striking out eight batters. He threw 79 of 117 pitches for strikes in the outing, as his ERA fell to 3.41.
The Tigers lost, 3-2.
Verlander is set to make his next start Tuesday against the Orioles.

| Justin Verlander wins fourth straight start |
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com
(6/7/13) Tigers starting pitcher Justin Verlander allowed three runs in seven innings Friday against the Indians, the third start in a row he has done so.
Verlander opened the game with four shutout innings while the team built a 5-0 lead, and he did enough to make that lead stand up. He allowed three runs in the fifth inning, on five hits, including a double by Jason Kipnis that drove in two runs.
Verlander allowed the three runs on seven hits and two walks, while striking out six batters. He won his fourth start in a row, 7-5, to push his record to 8-4. Verlander has a 3.71 ERA on the season, but he has allowed at least three runs in six straight starts.
He will make his next start Wednesday against the Royals in Kansas City.

| Justin Verlander pitches around homers in win |
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com
(6/1/13) Tigers starting pitcher Justin Verlander allowed two home runs for the first time since last July Saturday against the Orioles, but he still earned his third win in a row.
Verlander allowed a pair of solo home runs to J.J. Hardy, one in the third and another in the fifth, but held the Orioles to just three runs on eight hits overall in seven innings of work. Verlander walked one and struck out five, his lowest total in three starts.
Verlander threw 73 of 112 pitches for strikes, as his ERA rose slightly to 3.70. He is now 7-4 on the season after the 10-3 win.
Verlander will go for his fourth win in a row in his next start, Friday against the Indians.

| Justin Verlander Ks 13 in victory |
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com
(5/27/13) Tigers starter Justin Verlander had a couple bumps in the road Monday at home against the Pirates. Once his offense got going behind him, however, it was smooth sailing for his sixth victory.
Verlander improved to 6-4 with a 3.68 ERA as he stuck out 13 batters over 110 pitches and seven innings. He allowed three earned runs on seven hits and two walks in the game.
Verlander has 23 strikeouts in his last two starts, both wins, as he's put a two-start losing streak far behind him. He'll look to keep rolling when he next takes the hill Saturday at Baltimore.

| Justin Verlander wins despite rough outing, rain delay |
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com
(5/23/13) Tigers starter Justin Verlander was given a 2-0 lead to begin the game in Cleveland Wednesday night. By the end of the second inning he gave it back.
Detroit then scored four times for him in the third inning and three more in the fifth for a 9-2 lead. Verlander uncharacteristically gave back some of those runs. He allowed an RBI single to Michael Brantley in the fifth followed by a Carlos Santana two-run homer before the game went into a rain delay.
Verlander came back after the delay to get the final two outs of the fifth inning to qualify for the win and improve to 5-4. The ace gave up five runs on 10 hits and a walk in five innings with nine strikeouts over 110 pitches. His ERA is 3.66.
Verlander has back-to-back poor starts and is 1-2 in his last three outings. He's given up 16 runs over a span of 12 2/3 innings in his last three starts. He next starts Monday against Pittsburgh.

| Justin Verlander did not win his second consecutive American League Cy Young award last season, but it wasn't for lack of trying. He struck out batters at a slightly higher rate, gave up homers at a lower rate and tossed two more complete games than he did in 2011. Even though Verlander saw increases in his ERA (from 2.40 to 2.64) and WHIP (0.92 to 1.06), his skill set showed no signs of erosion. He is likely to be the first pitcher to come off the board in many leagues, and there are plenty of good reasons for it, starting with four straight years of 220-plus innings, 200-plus strikeouts and no more than 71 walks. Because there are a few other candidates in the first-pitcher-to-be-drafted discussion, such as Clayton Kershaw, David Price and Felix Hernandez, you don't need to use a first-round pick on Verlander, though if you did, it wouldn't be the worst use of a high-value pick.
