What It Means:

Scherzer is still dealing with discomfort below his right scapula, after already having a start pushed back last month. "I’m doing everything I can to get through this without having it linger through the rest of the season," Scherzer said. "I’m in a good spot… I’m not going backward [with the injury], I’m moving forward. That’s the good part." The Mets will reportedly add David Peterson to the rotation if Scherzer is unable to toe the mound Tuesday.

Scherzer surrendered 6 runs on 8 hits and a walk over 3 1/3 innings, with 3 strikeouts, in his return from a 10-game suspension last week. The 38-year-old right-hander showed a dip in velocity and spin rate in that outing. numberFire's models project Scherzer ($10,400) for 31.5 FanDuel points on Tuesday.
