Some things get better with age and Max Scherzer is one of them. At age 37, the NL Cy Young Award favorite is having one of his most dominant seasons in his illustrious 14-year career. Mad Max leads all of MLB with a 2.38 ERA, 0.83 WHIP, .174 OPP Avg. And that includes last week’s clunker in Colorado!
For Scherzer, his monster season comes at a perfect time as he’ll enter free agency having proven that even at an age where most pitchers are in the twilight of their careers, he’s still one of the game’s elite front-line starters.
