Before final start of career, Justin Verlander undecided on entering Hall of Fame as Astro or Tiger

Justin Verlander, who will make the final start of his career Saturday, says he doesn't want to make a decision yet about which logo will be on his Hall of Fame plaque: Astros or Tigers.

Before final start of career, Justin Verlander undecided on entering Hall of Fame as Astro or Tiger

Justin Verlander, the Detroit Tigers pitcher who won two World Series titles and two Cy Young Awards with the Houston Astros, is undecided on whether he wants to be inducted into the Hall of Fame as a Tiger or an Astro. Verlander, who will make his final start in Detroit, has played for four different teams but is best known for his 14 years with the Tigers and his seven award-filled seasons with the Astros.

He said it was not fair to ask him to choose in the moment, but he doesn't want to think about it or talk about it right now. Verlander's 2022 season with the Astros, when Houston won its second World Series, was his most dominant and happiest year.
