Scherzer has not been his usual dominant self through 10 starts in 2019, pitching to a 3.72 ERA and suffering five losses in the process. He does, however, have 87 strikeouts over 65 1/3 innings and has tossed five consecutive quality starts, so a Scherzer not at his best is still better than most. His next start is scheduled to come against the Mets in New York.

Fantasy Impact

It's been nearly a month since Scherzer last recorded a win, a combination of bouts of poor location and bad luck. He pitched well enough to win Wednesday, but the sputtering Nationals offense failed to come to his aid. While the wins have yet to come in 2019, Scherzer still has a sterling 62-to-7 strikeout-to-walk ratio. He also topped out at 97 MPH last night.
