Scherzer was lifted after just 71 pitches, and the Jays reported after the game that he was dealing with fatigue in his troublesome thumb. It sounds like he’ll probably make his next start on time, but it’s very clear the thumb is going to remain an issue going forward. Between the early exits and maybe a maintenance IL stint at some point, he might not be worth the hassle in mixed leagues, even though he’s throwing pretty well. He averaged 93.6 mph with his fastball tonight and wound up with a nice 34 percent CSW.

It doesn’t sound like it’s a first for Scherzer as he deals with his thumb problem, and he expects to make his next start. Scherzer was pulled from Monday’s game against the Yankees after 71 pitches. He’d allowed two runs over five innings and struck out seven.

Springer said after the game last night that he was fine, and the Blue Jays certainly didn’t want him sitting with a southpaw on the mound for the Yankees today.

Bichette stepped on a loose baseball during batting practice on Monday and was scratched from the lineup with knee discomfort. Even though he remains sidelined today, the Blue Jays have maintained that he will not be sent for additional testing. However, they did call up Leo Jiménez to add extra depth in the infield, so it remains to be seen how long Bichette will actually be out for.
