ARLINGTON -- Justin Verlander hasn't thrown his last pitch for the Tigers yet. He's set to make his scheduled turn in Detroit's rotation on Tuesday night against the Rangers. His fiancee, Kate Upton, will be watching, as will likely a scout from the Houston Astros. But while Verlander and Upton are ready to exchange vows in the future, there is no sign the Tigers and Astros are close to committing to a trade to send Verlander to Houston.
Jon Heyman of MLB Network reported that the Astros and Tigers were in talks regarding Verlander, then revised that report to note that they last talked last week.
