Max Scherzer Pitches Great in Triple-A Rehab Start
Max Scherzer (thumb) was outstanding in a rehab start with Triple-A Buffalo on Wednesday. Scherzer, making his second start for the Bisons, held Worcester scoreless over 4 1/3 innings of one-hit ball, striking out eight and walking two. The three-time Cy Young winner amassed 75 pitches and averaged 92.5 mph on his fastball in what could go down as his final tuneup before returning to the Blue Jays' rotation. Scherzer made one start with Toronto this year, a three-inning season debut on March 29, before landing on the injured list with inflammation in his right thumb. If all goes well in the next few days, he could start for the Jays on Tuesday against the Cleveland Guardians, per Keegan Matheson of MLB.com.
