Shohei Ohtani is under fire for his potential $240 off field issue. However, MLB analyst has downplayed the entire situation.

The Giants’ losing streak reached seven games — and 15 of 16 at home — despite seven shutout innings from Justin Verlander.

Verlander allowed two hits and struck out eight without walking a batter over seven scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Rays on Saturday. Verlander threw 63 of 88 pitches for strikes in his best start of the season.

While Verlander has struggled to pile up wins, he’s still been busy climbing up other leaderboards. He currently ranks 10th with 3,511 career strikeouts and is only five away from passing Hall of Famer Walter Johnson for ninth on the all-time list, though a discrepancy in the record books led to an odd moment in the fifth inning on Saturday.

Justin Verlander is 42 years old and a surefire Hall of Famer. He pitched seven scoreless innings Saturday night, but it was the Tampa B

"I'm frustrated that our fans come out and support us every night and we gave them literally nothing today," Giants manager Bob Melvin said.

Verlander will be a first-ballot Hall of Famer once he retires after a career that includes a Rookie of the Year award, nine All-Star Game appearances, three Cy Young Awards, an MVP and two titles.

Justin Verlander. San Francisco and the veteran righty agreed to a one-year, $15 million deal. It was a major risk with him set to be 42 years old once Opening Day rolled around, especially with him coming off the least productive season of his career in 2024.

Verlander remained stuck on 263 career victories in his quest for 300. If the Giants were a mining claim, he would’ve abandoned it by now. Short of the Giants releasing him and eating the rest of his $15 million salary, Verlander will have to keep swinging his pickax at what’s been a barren landscape.

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Justin Verlander seemingly wants to leave the Bay Area so badly that he couldn't fully enjoy reaching 3,500 career strikeouts.
