HEY JUSTIN, THAT'S NOT KATE UPTON!

I like Justin Verlander.  I think he's one of the best pitchers out there and deserves everything that comes his way.  He's a gamer. If he can get a super model like Kate Upton, which he's been rumored to be dating and was on vacation with, according to reports, HERE, good for him.  If he wants a dog named Riley, like his dog in the picture above, he should have it.  Plus, the damn dog knows how to smile for a picture, so I guess that's a plus. Not gonna lie though, I'd like to see a Kate Upton pout rather than a dog smile...that's just me.

So why am I bringing any of this up? It has been a very, very slow Yankee news day, what else is new?  So, I saw Verlander had tweeted that he's going to spring training now, a month before Pitchers and Catchers actually report to get started and he tweeted that below.  Hey, I have to give the guy credit, he's dedicated.

But come to think of it... dedication is being totally discreet with Kate Upton and never being seen together ever!  He must really dig her that he'd be that private about it.

What can I say, I love this guy! He does everything right in my book.
