New York Mets starting pitcher Max Scherzer (oblique) is set to make his second rehab start at Double-A Binghamton on Tuesday. The 37-year-old made his first rehab outing last Tuesday at Double-A. He pitched 3 1/3 innings, allowing three hits, one walk and two earned runs while striking out six. Scherzer stated that his oblique felt fine the day after his last start, but also added that he'd been dealing with some soreness this past week. He said, "I was sore, as expected. I am doing a lot. I passed all the tests, there is no setback whatsoever, so this is just the nature of coming back from this injury." There's a chance Scherzer's next start after Tuesday could be with the Mets this coming weekend or early next week, but we'll know more about the likelihood of that in the coming days.--Andrew Ericksen - 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

Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Max Scherzer (thumb) threw 27 pitches off the mound on Friday in what manager John Schneider called a "step in the right direction." There's still no timetable for when Scherzer might be able to return to Toronto's starting rotation, but it's good news overall after he's had multiple setbacks with his right thumb. The 40-year-old three-time Cy Young winner and eight-time All-Star made just one start before landing on the injured list with his thumb injury, and he required multiple injections in order to deal with the discomfort. Hopefully now he'll eventually be able to build up his arm and go on a minor-league rehab assignment in the near future. The future Hall of Famer can still be valuable in fantasy, but injuries have become a major problem in the last several seasons. In his lone start against the Orioles on March 29, he allowed two earned runs in just three innings of work.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Max Scherzer (thumb) rejoined the team in Houston this week and was seen playing catch before their game against the Astros on Monday at Daikin Park. Scherzer received a second cortisone shot in his troublesome right thumb (in the knuckle area) and is hoping it will alleviate the discomfort in his finger. Pitching coach Pete Walker said Scherzer felt his throwing session went "OK." It was the first time that the 40-year-old future Hall of Famer had thrown since receiving a second cortisone shot. We should know more in a couple of days based on how Scherzer is feeling. If he's cleared to progress to throwing bullpens and facing live hitters, he will eventually need to go on a minor-league rehab assignment before rejoining Toronto's starting rotation. Barring a setback, that might not be until mid- to late-May.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Max Scherzer (thumb) threw on Tuesday and Wednesday and will visit with a doctor again on Wednesday, according to manager John Schneider. Scherzer will be visiting with a different hand specialist than the last time. The 40-year-old veteran just hasn't been able to get past a thumb issue after feeling more soreness following a throwing session late last week. It's good news that he has started throwing again, but we won't know more on a potential timeline for a return until he meets with another doctor on Wednesday. Even if the three-time Cy Young winner is cleared to start ramping up his throwing program, it seems like a good bet he won't return to Toronto's starting rotation until May. In the meantime, left-hander Easton Lucas will get more starting opportunities for fantasy managers in AL-only leagues.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
