9/16/24 Cleveland Guardians Receive Brutal MLB Playoff Prediction. Barring an incomprehensible collapse, the Cleveland Guardians will be in the MLB playoffs. Bleacher Report's Kerry Miller does not think Cleveland will have a very deep run, projecting the Guardians to lose to the Houston Astros in four games in the ALDS. Miller has Cleveland securing a first-round bye, but feels that the Guardians will be vanquished by Justin Verlander and the Astros.

9/02/24 3 Astros ready for breakout September ahead of playoffs. Assuming they can hold off the Seattle Mariners, the Houston Astros will head back to the postseason in 2024. With Justin Verlander back on the mound and Kyle Tucker seemingly on his way back, Houston has the makings of another team that can make a deep run. The scary part is the Astros have so much more than the All-Star who have helped them to seven consecutive appearances in the American League Championship series. The Astros' September schedule has a mix of contenders and non-contenders in it, giving them plenty of potential pitfalls as they look to wrap up the AL West.

8/30/24 Insider believes Mets could snag All-Star from division rival in free agency. For the New York Mets, 2025 has long been shaping up to be a big year. After the Mets sold heavily at the 2023 trade deadline, moving on from future Hall-of-Famers Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer, the Mets knew their rotation would take some time to rebuild. Plus, they have three free agents of their own in that current rotation.

8/26/24 Justin Verlander, with no plans to slow down, faces Phils. As Justin Verlander treks toward 300 career wins, the veteran right-hander knows he will need a combination of strong pitching and fortuitous health to reach the milestone. Verlander appears to have regained his health following a lengthy absence, and he will continue his comeback on Tuesday when the visiting Houston Astros oppose the Philadelphia Phillies. After missing 2 1/2 months due to neck stiffness, Verlander (3-3, 3.92 ERA) returned Wednesday against the Boston Red Sox and gave up two runs and four hits in five innings, striking out six and walking one. "I felt good," Verlander said.

8/26/24 How Houston Astros shook off ugly start to reclaim AL West: 'Push the issue'. Reach seven consecutive American League Championship Series and win a pair of World Series in that span and yes, the Houston Astros have earned every benefit of the doubt, every expectation that since they have so much respect for the grind of a 162-game season, that their desired outcome will await them in the end. There was good reason: Twenty-six games into rookie manager Joe Espada's tenure, they were 7-19 and in the West cellar, facing a 6 ½-game deficit that would grow to 10 games by June 18. The forthright public proclamations that things would turn belied an early-season urgency the Astros simply hadn't needed in this era. “Don't get me wrong: We're in here knowing what's going on,” veteran pitcher Justin Verlander tells USA TODAY Sports.

8/22/24 Astros, relief pitcher Hector Neris reuniting after 2022 World Series champ's release, report says. The Houston Astros seem intent on reliving that 2022 championship energy with Justin Verlander's return from the injured list and a reunion with a vital piece of the club's bullpen two seasons ago. The current American League West leaders will bring back right-handed relief pitcher Hector Neris after the Chicago Cubs released the '22 World Series champ this week, MLB.com's Brian McTaggart reported Thursday, citing sources.
