Max Scherzer Expects To Miss A Couple Days
2 years agoNew York Mets starting pitcher Max Scherzer (neck, shoulder) said he expects to miss a couple of days and pitch against the Washington Nationals in the next series this weekend. Scherzer's neck discomfort set in on Sunday and was much worse Monday morning, leading to him being scratched from his scheduled start on Tuesday against the Cincinnati Reds. "I wish I could pitch, but when this locks up, you can't do a thing until it subsides," Scherzer said. The 38-year-old right-hander is hoping to avoid the injured list, but fantasy managers can't rule out the possibility of it going that way if Scherzer isn't ready to face his old team by the weekend. The three-time Cy Young winner hasn't been at his best so far in 2023, and injuries haven't helped.
