The Houston Astros have agreed to keep Justin Verlander on a one-year, $25 million deal, according to sources.

The deal includes a player option for 2023 as well.

Verlander won the 2019 American League Cy Young, but has made just one appearance since. He made one start during the shortened 2020 season because of elbow issues and missed all of the 2021 campaign after undergoing surgery to repair his ulnar collateral ligament Sept. 30, 2020.
