Blue Jays right-hander Max Scherzer lasted just 2 1/3 innings while allowing seven earned runs and taking the loss against the Guardians on Friday.
Fantasy Impact
Friday marked another rough outing for the veteran, who was knocked around for six hits, including a trio of home runs, along with three walks in another short outing. He did not strike out a batter. The 41-year-old has lasted 2 1/3 innings or less in three of his last four starts and has seen his ERA balloon to 9.64 through five starts on the season. With Trey Yesavage (shoulder) and Jose Berrios (elbow) nearing returns to the active roster, Scherzer is far from guaranteed to remain a member of the team's rotation moving forward.
Blue Jays right-hander Max Scherzer pitched six innings of two-run ball but took a no-decision in an eventual 6-2 loss to the D-backs on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact
Coming off one of the worst starts of his Hall of Fame career, in which he yielded eight earned runs in 2 1/3 innings against the Twins, Scherzer was rock-solid in this one. The right-hander yielded two earned runs on five hits and a walk in his six innings of work. He also struck out just one. The right-hander nonetheless has something to build on as he looks to drive his 7.16 ERA down further in his next scheduled start on Friday at home against the Guardians.
