Verrett, a native of The Woodlands, Texas, spent parts of four seasons in Major League Baseball with the New York Mets, Baltimore Orioles and Texas Rangers. The right-hander owns strong numbers at the game’s highest level, with a career 4.62 ERA over 57 games including 16 starts. Verrett has a career MLB record of 6-10 with one save and 16 games finished. His first MLB victory came in his first career start, as Verrett fired eight dominant innings against the Colorado Rockies on August 23, 2015 with a career-best eight strikeouts.

Verrett starred at Baylor University in Waco from 2009-11, going 19-10 with a 3.55 ERA over the course of three seasons. Following his junior year, Verrett was selected in the third round of the 2011 MLB Draft by the New York Mets, making his pro debut the following season. He reached Triple-A with the Mets before the Orioles snapped him up with the 28th pick of the 2014 MLB Rule V Draft. After the Orioles waived him, Verrett was claimed by the Texas Rangers, for whom he made his big league debut in 2015. He was returned to the Mets in May of that year, and put together his best stint at the MLB level, fashioning a 3.03 ERA over 38.2 innings.

In 2016 he made 35 appearances for the Mets, including 12 starts, going 3-8 with a 5.20 ERA. Verrett got off to a tremendous start, leading the majors in ERA in the month of April (0.52) and becoming the first pitcher in Major League history to pick up two relief wins and have two scoreless starts of 6.0 or more innings before the end of April. Over the offseason he was dealt to Baltimore, where he made four appearances out of the Orioles bullpen.

Verrett joined the NC Dinos of the Korean Baseball Organization in 2018, going 6-10 with a 5.28 ERA over 29 starts for the Changwon club. The 30-year-old signed with the Oakland Athletics in 2019, battling injuries and pitching in just seven games at Double-A Midland.
