Max Scherzer – SP, TOR: 36% rostered
Scherzer threw five shutout innings in Triple-A on Wednesday in his final rehab start. He’ll now likely rejoin the Blue Jays rotation this upcoming week, so what should we expect? Well, Scherzer sat 92.5 mph in his rehab start, which is right in line with what he did last year. He had a 3.95 ERA and 40 strikeouts in 43.1 innings last year, and his strikeout rate has fallen every year since 2019. However, he also hasn’t posted a WHIP above 1.20 since 2012, so you’re likely going to get solid ratios with fairly average strikeout numbers from Scherzer while he’s healthy. Which could only be one or two starts at this rate. He’s more of a deep league option for me.
