ARLINGTON, Texas -- Max Scherzer of the Texas Rangers threw 40 pitches to hitters Tuesday and expressed hope that he can begin a rehab assignment soon.

"Got to recover well from this," Scherzer said. "Make sure my thumb is OK as I ramp back up into this. As long as I check that box, hopefully I can get out there on rehab."

Manager Bruce Bochy, who watched the session from behind home plate, echoed the three-time Cy Young Award winner's optimism.

"We'll check on him tomorrow, a good chance he will start his rehab possibly," Bochy said.
