"Max Scherzer may be 41 years old, but after starting Game 7 of the World Series for the Toronto Blue Jays, he isn't ready to hang up his cleats just yet. However, at his age (and with nearly 3,000 career regular season innings on his arm), Scherzer only has so many seasons left to play. He made it clear earlier this offseason that he wants to win a third ring"
""In a telephone conversation, free-agent right-hander Max Scherzer said he is healthy and ready to sign at any moment if certain teams call," Rosenthal wrote. "But if the right opportunity is not available, Scherzer also is content to wait until after Opening Day for an opening to emerge with one of his preferred clubs." One would have to assume the Blue Jays count as one of those "preferred clubs" after Scherzer was trusted to handle Game 7 of the 2025 World Series,"
Max Scherzer is 41 and started Game 7 of the World Series for the Toronto Blue Jays, throwing 4.1 innings and allowing one run. He has nearly 3,000 regular-season innings and intends to pursue a third championship ring, after titles with the Washington Nationals (2019) and Texas Rangers (2023). Scherzer is healthy and prepared to sign immediately for the right opportunity but is willing to wait until after Opening Day 2026 for a preferred contending team. The Blue Jays remain a plausible midseason option despite adding Dylan Cease and Cody Ponce, since rotation needs can change.
