Do you have a problem with Verlander responding to Twitter haters?
The bullpen's performance isn't exactly a favorite topic of manager Brad Ausmus, either. He knows it was shaky at best, brutally bad at times, and inconsistent always.

It's October and where else would the Detroit Tigers star pitcher be but in the Big Apple with Kate Upton.
He served as the Phillies' major league pitching coach for nine seasons, leading a staff that included Cliff Lee, Roy Halladay and Cole Hamels.
Jones was named to the position in July of 2011, and saw both Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer win the American League Cy Young Award in 2011 and 2013, respectively, under his watch.
In a photo posted by the 'Funny People' producer, Judd Apatow, showed himself, Verlander, Upton, Sandler, Andy Dick, David Spade and Leslie Mann all hanging out.
