The Toronto Blue Jays improved their pitching rotation for the 2025 season by signing Max Scherzer to a one-year deal. Despite being 40 years old, Scherzer is a three-time Cy Young Award winner and two-time World Series champion. However, Scherzer has struggled in the 2025 season with a 4.70 ERA and only one win in 23 innings pitched. In his recent game against the New York Yankees, he faced early trouble and did not complete six innings for the fifth time this season, raising questions about his future role with the team.
Despite being 40 years old, adding Scherzer seemed like a solid fit. Scherzer is a three time Cy Young award winner and an eight-time All-Star.
Unfortunately, the 2025 season has been rough for Scherzer and with the trade deadline approaching on July 31, the Blue Jays might have some thinking to do about Scherzer's role.
Scherzer had recorded a 4.70 earned run average in 23 innings pitched with just one win in 2025.
After allowing the home run, Scherzer held the Yankees in check over the next three innings, until Cody Bellinger hit a solo home in the fifth inning.
