Justin Verlander Out For Giants Due To Paternity Leave
Justin Verlander of the San Francisco Giants is on the paternity list and will not play for the team.
What It Means
Justin Verlander, a starting pitcher for the San Francisco Giants, is currently on the paternity list. In the 2025 season, he has pitched 56 2/3 innings over 11 games, holding an ERA of 4.45. Verlander has 47 strikeouts but has not recorded any wins, with a 0-4 win-loss record.
Earlier this season, Verlander dealt with a pectoral issue, placing him on the 15-day injured list multiple times. This absence from the field might impact the Giants, as their next game is against the Miami Marlins on June 24, 2025. Verlander's performance has been a key part of the team's pitching lineup, despite the challenges faced this season.
