And in his last five postseason starts, he has a 7.71 ERA.
What he does have going for him is he's Max Scherzer, and he is a complete lunatic, and that is a compliment.
He's Mad Max, and he's one of the great competitors we've ever seen.
In fact, I was talking to Chris...
bassett of the blue jays the other day chris bassett was is a pitcher and was a really good high school football player and a great high school basketball player so he's a new teammate this year with max scherzer and scherzer finds out that chris bassett loves basketball and is really good so max typically being max goes to chris bassett and said i want to play one-on-one against you and he says and we're playing full court one-on-one that's that's who max scherzer is i
We had Ryan Zimmerman on our podcast last year, the greatest Washington national ever.
And he said that he used to play pickup basketball with Max.
And this is how Max would do it.
Zimmerman said, we had to play by the Max rules.
And I said, well, what exactly does that mean?
Even though I can figure it out myself.
So after like five buckets of the pickup game,
you have to shoot free throws because you never know how good a free throw shooter you are until you shoot them when you are fatigued.
And then when the pickup game is over, first team to 12, then you have to shoot free throws again because now you're really fatigued after a game.
That's how Max Scherzer does everything in his life, and it's one reason why I think he's got a chance to be really good tonight, but the numbers suggest he might struggle tonight.
And by the way,
This will be the sixth different franchise for which he has started a postseason game.
That will be the most of any pitcher in Major League history.
David Wells started a game for five different franchises.
Tonight, Max Scherzer will make it six.
