The San Francisco Giants made one of the biggest surprises of free agency when they signed three-time Cy Young winning pitcher Justin Verlander to a one-year deal worth $15 million last week. Though the fit made a lot of sense due to the Giants need in the rotation for another high-upside starter plus the veteran leadership he brings to a young staff,

Justin Verlander and the San Francisco Giants have finalized a $15 million, one-year contract. A three-time AL Cy Young Award winner, Verlander joins a projected rotation led by All-Star right-hander Logan Webb.

The Giants have put together a nice enough offseason so far. The signing of shortstop Willy Adames (seven-year, $182 million contract) and the addition of 42-year-old Justin Verlander (one-year, $15 million) are nice, solid pickups.
