Justin Verlander was always going to the Houston Astros

Justin Verlander ending up with the Houston Astros seemed like a foregone conclusion. The Baltimore Orioles added the starting pitcher they so desperately needed. The San Diego Padres may have had a sneaky good trade deadline. Also, the Miami Marlins added a few power bats to their lineup, the Philadelphia Phillies needed Michael Lorenzen, the St Louis Cardinals are poised for future success, and Shohei Ohtani and the Los Angeles Angels fell to Spencer Strider and the Atlanta Braves.
