Max Scherzer To Make Rehab Start On Saturday
3 months agoTexas Rangers right-hander Max Scherzer (shoulder) said he will make a minor-league rehab start on Saturday, with the location being to be announced. Scherzer has been cleared to restart a rehab assignment after tossing a successful two-inning live batting practice session on Monday. The 40-year-old future Hall of Famer hasn't pitched for the Rangers since the start of August due to right-shoulder fatigue but continues to hold out hope that he can return for a few starts in the final month of the 2024 season in September. Injuries are beginning to take their toll on the three-time Cy Young winner, and he's only been able to make eight starts for Texas this year after getting a late start to the season due to offseason back surgery. Even if Scherzer makes it back later this month, he's going to be a pretty risky fantasy streamer and could even be on a pitch count.
