Max Scherzer (back) undergoes surgery, out till June or July

Max Scherzer had surgery Thursday in Dallas for a herniated disc and is expected to be out until June or July.

Fantasy Impact

Scherzer dealt with a back injury in the playoffs, most notably in the World Series. This is a big loss to the Rangers starting rotation for at least the first few months of the regular season. He will be someone who'll be a stash in fantasy drafts.

Max Scherzer named Game 3 starter of ALCS

Bruce Bochy named Max Scherzer the Game 3 starter of the ALCS against the Astros.

Fantasy Impact

Scherzer was available out of the bullpen for Game 1, but he was not needed. He was able to work his way back from a teres major strain in his right shoulder. The Rangers will look to take a 2-0 series lead Monday afternoon ahead of Scherzer's start.

Max Scherzer (shoulder) added to ALCS roster

Max Scherzer (shoulder) has been added to the Rangers' ALCS roster.

Fantasy Impact

Scherzer has been making his way back from a strain in his teres major muscle. He had a shot to join the ALDS roster, but the Rangers opted to hold him out and will now activate him. He most recently completed a 60-pitch simulated game last week, so he may not be ready for a full workload. Still, the Rangers will be happy to get their big trade deadline acquisition on the mound vs the Astros.
