View More NewsJustin Verlander strikes out 10 in final start
Justin Verlander threw six innings of shutout ball as the Astros went on to beat the Orioles 4-3 on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact
The 35-year-old struck out 10, walked one, and allowed just three hits. He finishes the year 16-9 with a 2.52 ERA and a 0.90 WHIP. Verlander also struck out 290 batters. It was a truly magnificent season. Although there might be some regression coming in 2019, Verlander should be drafted as a fantasy ace once again.
