I"d love to know the basis for you opinion on Madrigal never getting it. I have no idea if he will or not but I know that he hasn't been a pitcher very long and that the Rangers are very high on him. I also know that he'll be back in the minors where he belongs if everyone ever gets healthy. Writing off someone just because they're not performing well now is stupid. People used to feel the same way about Nelson Cruz too.

If you don't think Verlander had good stuff today then I'm not sure what "good stuff" is to you.

Verlander was fantastic. His fastball has incredible movement to go along with great velocity.
