Fantasy Impact
Verlander allowed four home runs on the day, a surprising development considering he had given up just 12 in his previous 20 starts. There's little to be concerned about with the veteran, who continues to be in the Cy Young discussion, finishing the first half with a 2.29 ERA and 0.84 WHIP.
