Max Scherzer got his first reps of the season against the Salt Lake Bees when he pitched for the Round Rock Express on Wednesday.
starter Max Scherzer began his injury rehab assignment on Wednesday with the Round Rock Express, as he pitched less than three innings in his first game action since last year’s World Series.
The 39-year-old right-hander has been on the 15-day injured list since the start of the season after he had surgery on a herniated disc in December.The numbers for the three-time Cy Young winner weren’t impressive against Salt Lake. He pitched 2 1/3 innings, giving up five hits, three runs and no walks. He struck out four. He threw 52 pitches, 32 of which were strikes. He faced 11 hitters.He allowed a solo home run to Jason Martin with one out in the first inning.
For the past few weeks Scherzer has said that he’s ahead of schedule when it comes to his recovery. That’s part of the reason the Rangers placed him on the 15-day injured list as opposed to the 60-day injured list, where they moved Jacob deGrom and Tyler Mahle to start the season.He went a combined 13-6 with the Mets and Rangers last year, finishing with a 3.77 ERA. With the Rangers he went 4-2 with a 3.20 ERA.
