Justin Verlander, a future Hall of Famer, is currently facing struggles in his first year with the Giants. His recent performance has led to a franchise record of 12 consecutive winless starts, marking the worst start of a season in the team's long history. Verlander, at 42, has seen a slight uptick in his metrics compared to last year, but is plagued by high WHIP figures and poor run support from the team. Verlander attributed the challenge to himself, while the manager pointed to the team's pressure to perform.
Verlander has now set the franchise record with his 12-game winless start, showcasing both his struggles and the team's offensive issues.
Manager Bob Melvin suggests the team may be pressing for Verlander's success, impacting their performance at the plate.
