Astros manager Dusty Baker told reporters that Justin Verlander (forearm) is "not progressing as quickly as he'd like." (Chandler Rome on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Verlander was placed on the IL after just one start this year. It was initially reported that he would be out for the season but Verlander quickly refuted that. However, it now appears that his rehab isn't going as well as he was hoping for. Fantasy owners are encouraged to stash him in an IL slot until we receive more information.
