New York Mets Introduce Justin Verlander, Title Odds Have Wide Range

This story has been updated to reflect the Mets overnight agreement Wednesday with shortstop Carlos Correa.
Big day Tuesday morning at Citi Field for the New York Mets, who held an introductory news conference with their biggest free agency acquisition of the off-season, Justin Verlander.
Unless, of course, that biggest addition turns out to be Kodai Senga. He may not be able to walk around Times Square anonymously for much longer if his signature pitch, the “ghost fork,” proves so unhittable that he becomes more valuable than Verlander, a three-time winner of the Cy Young Award.
