Tigers’ Justin Verlander goes on 15-day IL with left hip inflammation

Justin Verlander’s return to the Detroit Tigers continues its shaky start. The veteran pitcher was placed on the 15-day injured list with left hip inflammation, the team announced on Saturday.

Verlander, 43, had a difficult season debut in a 9-6 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks on Monday. He allowed five runs on six hits and two walks, with only one strikeout in 3 2/3 innings.

Prior to Friday’s home opener at Comerica Park, Verlander spoke with reporters about his return to Detroit but also highlighted mechanical flaws that could be fixed to improve his next performance.

“Hips and head position,” Verlander said, via The Athletic’s Cody Stavenhagen. “Trying to be a little more deceptive and stay in line a little bit longer. “

“I hope it’s not like last year, where I spent months trying to find it,” he added. “Hopefully, it gets right a little quicker than that. Talking to the analysts, they said the stuff was actually pretty good. I’m not that far away, I don’t think.”

Verlander caught the ceremonial first pitch from former teammate Brandon Inge before the Tigers’ 4-0 win over the St. Louis Cardinals.

However, after a throwing session on Saturday, the decision was made to put Verlander on the IL. He was scheduled to start Sunday night’s game versus the Cardinals. Instead, Keider Montero was called up from Triple-A and will take Verlander’s turn in the rotation.

Montero, 23, appeared in 20 games for the Tigers last season, making 12 starts. He finished with a 4.37 ERA and 70 strikeouts in 90 2/3 innings. Pitching for Venezuela in the 2026 World Baseball Classic, Montero allowed two runs and five hits in 4 1/3 innings, making one start.

Verlander signed a one-year, $13 million deal with the Tigers, returning to Detroit nine seasons since he was traded to the Houston Astros in 2017.
