Washington Nationals projected starter Max Scherzer has a prime matchup against the New York Mets on Thursday night. The Mets come into the game tied with the Baltimore Orioles for the lowest team batting average in baseball while also ranking 28th in runs scored. Thursday will be Scherzer's first start against New York this season, but he has dominated the Mets in the last three years. Scherzer has posted a 2.07 ERA against the Metropolitans since 2015 with 107 strikeouts in 78 1/3 innings pitched. That strikeout total is by far his highest against any team in baseball during that stretch. Fire up Scherzer with confidence.--Adam

Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Max Scherzer (thumb) played catch at Angel Stadium before the team's game against the Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday and plans to face live hitters on Wednesday, according to Sportsnet's Ben Nicholson-Smith. Scherzer continues to build up as his thumb feels better, but he said the bigger test will be how his thumb responds the day after he pitches in a game setting. The 40-year-old three-time Cy Young winner made just one start for the Blue Jays in the regular season before landing on the 15-day injured list with inflammation in his right thumb. He's had several setbacks along the way but is hoping that he can get over the hump when he resumes facing live hitters. The eight-time All-Star can still be useful in mixed fantasy leagues if he's healthy, but he's not as dominant as he once was and has been battling various ailments the last couple of years.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

The Toronto Blue Jays announced on Monday that they transferred right-handers Max Scherzer (thumb) and Erik Swanson (forearm) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL. The team also optioned left-hander Josh Walker to Triple-A Buffalo to make room on the roster for right-handers Spencer Turnbull and Jose Urena, who were signed over the weekend. A right-thumb injury has limited Scherzer to just one start in his first season with Toronto in 2025. While the 40-year-old eight-time All-Star and three-time Cy Young winner has been trending in the right direction of late while throwing off a mound, he won't be eligible to return from the IL until May 29. The future Hall of Famer will require a minor-league rehab assignment and most likely won't be back in Toronto's rotation until June, assuming he doesn't have another setback with his thumb.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Max Scherzer (thumb) completed another bullpen session on Wednesday. Blue Jays manager John Schneider noted that the session went "fairly well." Fantasy managers should continue to monitor the 40-year-old's progression. However, seeing that he has completed two bullpen sessions without facing any setbacks is a positive sign. Scherzer hit the 15-day injured list following his season debut. In this outing against the Baltimore Orioles, the right-hander was removed from the contest after just three innings of work. If he is able to continue to increase his workload, he could be cleared to begin a rehab assignment in the coming weeks. Last summer, Scherzer battled injuries as well but was effective when on the bump, holding a 3.95 ERA with a 1.15 WHIP. He remains a solid stash in deeper formats for the time being.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Max Scherzer (thumb) completed a 27-pitch bullpen session on Friday. Toronto manager John Schneider noted that it was a "step in the right direction" for the veteran right-hander. Scherzer has been sidelined with this injury after making his season debut on March 29. In this outing, Scherzer lasted just three innings before exiting the contest. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status, but it appears Scherzer will need to complete several more bullpen sessions before being cleared to embark on a rehab assignment. Last season, the 40-year-old was limited to numerous injuries and logged just 43 1/3 innings on the bump. Even though he has battled injuries over the past few seasons, when on the mound, he has been effective. Fantasy managers in deeper formats should continue to stash Scherzer while he slowly increases his workload.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller
