ESPN's Darren Rovell "tweeted" this fun fact yesterday when learning about Justin Verlander's new contract with the Detroit Tigers:
"An avg. bi-weekly paycheck of $1,967,213 assuming Verlander only gets paid during the season (183 days) as is customary."
Folks -- he will pitch in only 35 games this season -- the other 127 games he sits and watches from the bench.
