Bad news for Nationals: Max Scherzer has left his game today in front of Mets after just one inning thrown in and with an apparent injury that could shut him out for days from all MLB.
Since the start of the day there were rumors that Max Scherzer It might not launch today. Possible exhaustion after his last outing (where he pitched more than 100 pitches) was said to be the cause.
And although Max Scherzer he jumped to the hill today (he is not an easy player to stop), after only one inning in front of Mets Nationals reliever Erick Fedde has had to come in to replace him.
No word yet on why Max Scherzer left the game after just one inning. Hearing that there was some doubt he’d make his start, so whatever he’s dealing with did not only pop up tonight.

So far there are no details of the nature of the possible injury that has forced him to leave the grill, but several analysts indicate a possible exhaustion.
If so, it would be not so bad news for Nats and Mad Max that after a couple of days of rest could launch again.
Let us remember that during a good part of the 2019 campaign Scherzer was absent due to a back injury. Her departure today has raised concerns again.
Here we will update you.
