It wasn’t too long ago when the LA Angels made a push for Max Scherzer at the trade deadline.
Instead, he went to the LA Dodgers and has been killing it. He’s never pitched this well before.
He has a 1.43 ERA in Dodger Blue, along with a 0.714 WHIP and just 1.1 walks per nine innings. The Dodgers will surely be making strong efforts to keep him this offseason. There’s another force in LA that is apparently working behind the scenes to foil those plans.
