Max Scherzer declared himself 'ready to go' after throwing another bullpen session and doing fielding drills two days before the Texas Rangers open the AL Championship Series.
The Rangers haven't said whether the three-time Cy Young Award winner will be on their ALCS roster, and that decision doesn't have to be made until Sunday before the Game 1 at"I feel good. Recovered, checked all of the boxes I possibly can," Scherzer said during a workout at Globe Life Field before the team traveled to Houston."So I'm ready to go.
Scherzer said he was confident he would get batters out, and knew he would have to bring his A-game against the Astros. But he didn't know how long he could go in a game. "Very encouraged, the fact that he threw 68 against hitters, maintained his stuff throughout all 68," Maddux said Friday of Scherzer's pitch count, speaking before the workouts."He didn't skip a beat from 1 to 68. That was the encouraging part. Need to sharpen up a little bit."
