3-time Cy Young Award winner Max Scherzer works his way back to rotation with Triple-A rehab start

Max Scherzer, a 40-year-old three-time Cy Young winner, made his first Triple-A rehab start on June 13, 2025, for the Buffalo Bisons at Sahlen Field.
Scherzer’s rehab follows thumb inflammation that sidelined him after his March 29 Blue Jays debut, where he left due to right lat soreness and was placed on the injured list.
In his rehab start, Scherzer threw 56 pitches over 4 1/3 innings, allowing two runs and striking out four, while his fastball velocity mostly ranged between 91 and 92.5 mph.
Manager John Schneider said, “I want to see 60-65 pitches,” emphasizing fastball velocity and health over the line score after the game.
Scherzer is anticipated to make an additional rehab appearance prior to rejoining the Blue Jays' starting rotation, which could influence the AL East standings as Toronto prepares to face the Yankees from June 30 to July 3.
