I 100-percent support that,” Scherzer said. “Rightfully so with the Dodgers, there was major concern to protect Walker and Julio ’s innings. He started and won Game 4 of that series, allowing one run in seven innings, on two days rest, the same schedule in 2021 from Game 3 of the NLDS through Game 2 of the NLCS.īut there was a difference between 2019 Scherzer with the Nationals and 2021 Scherzer with the Dodgers. Scherzer with the Nationals in 2019 started the wild card game and pitched five innings, then pitched a scoreless inning in relief three days later at Dodger Stadium in Game 2 of the NLDS. I was built up to throw a much higher work capacity in DC, so when I was asked to do that I felt my arm could respond to that.” “I was stepping on it all the time, and I loved it. “I just thought, reflecting upon that, in Washington I was asked to pitch on the five-day and pitch 100-110 pitches consistently,” Scherzer said. I thought I was in the same position to do that here in 2021. I pitched in the wild card game, made a relief appearance, and made a couple more starts, and was able to do that.

Scherzer, who like everyone in MLB transitioned from a 60-game season to a full one in 2021, was asked if his arm fatigue was the result of gradual wear and tear or because he pitched in Game 5 of the NLDS in relief. I didn’t foresee that happening, but it did.” “I overcooked my arm, or went past the work capacity that I was built up for. He said after the playoffs he took about 10 days off before resuming throwing, wanting to make sure there was no structural injury to his right arm. On Wednesday, Scherzer said his arm was “overcooked,” a phrase he used during the NLCS as well.
He was scheduled to start Game 6 but was scratched from that as well. Scherzer pitched the final inning in relief in Game 5 of the NLDS, three days after starting Game 3 of that series, then had his scheduled Game 1 start in the NLCS pushed back a day by arm fatigue. During the 44-minute press conference, which also featured Mets owner Steve Cohen, general manager Billy Eppler, and agent Scott Boras, Scherzer said he was healthy following arm fatigue that limited him during the NLCS with the Dodgers. Max Scherzer was introduced by the Mets on Wednesday after his three-year, $130 million contract was finalized.
