Houston Astros agree to let Justin Verlander cash out with a record payday

The Houston Astros just keep printing the money out, exuding loyalty for the men that helped them be as successful as they are today. Earlier this week, the Houston Astros inked Alex Bregman to a five-year, $100 million extension, ensuring that he remains one of the many ubiquitous faces of the franchise for quite some time.

After the rumors surfacing about the Houston Astros eagerly wanting to sign Justin Verlander to a contract extension, the latest report indicates that both sides have agreed in principle, well before the end of Spring Training tomorrow.
