Justin Verlander is back in Detroit, and the pitching market just got even more fascinating. On this episode of The Baseball Insiders, Adam Weinrib and MLB insider Robert Murray break down when the Tigers reunion started to feel real, what Verlander’s return means for a suddenly loaded Detroit rotation, and whether the Tigers now boast one of the deepest staffs in baseball.

The guys also dive into the still-clogged pitching market as Spring Training approaches, why Verlander found a home before other notable arms, and what happens next. Plus, some eyebrow-raising developments in Mets camp involving Francisco Lindor and defensive alignment decisions, and a surprising Caleb Durbin move that leaves big questions for both the Red Sox and Brewers.
