Max Scherzer | Fantasy Outlook

Max Scherzer flashes vintage dominance ahead of road start in Kansas City

Scherzer turned back the clock in his last outing, tossing seven one-hit, scoreless innings with 10 strikeouts against Seattle to climb to ninth all-time on MLB's strikeout list. Over his last 30 days, he has registered a 3.64 ERA and a 1.06 WHIP across 32.1 innings. Operating as a rotation staple for a Blue Jays club on a three-game winning streak at 68-70, his resurgence provides vital rotation depth amid key staff injuries.

While Scherzer's overall season ERA sits at 6.31 due to earlier back spasms and missed time, our projections anticipate a solid 4.46 ERA and 1.22 WHIP going forward. His 1.50 ERA over the past week will naturally normalize, but his vintage swing-and-miss stuff confirms that his late-summer turnaround is legitimate rather than a fluke.

Scherzer is scheduled for a single start this week on Saturday against Kansas City, where he will match up with Seth Lugo. Taking on a fifth-place Royals offense provides a prime spot to tally quality innings and strikeouts. Start.
