Tiger’s ace Justin Verlander struggled yesterday for the first time this spring as Detroit was blanked by the New York Mets 11-to-0 in Lakeland. Verlander allowed 5 runs over 4-and-a-third innings. Drew Smyly, who hasn’t allowed a run in 9-innings of Grapefruit League action, will start against the Phillies this afternoon in Clearwater.
