I know that five out of four people struggle with math, but let me break something down for you. The Athletic predicts that Max Scherzer is in line for a $150 million dollar/3-year payday. In case you are mathematically challenged, that is $142 million dollars more than what The Athletic predicts for Max Scherzer. $142,000,000! %$#@&^%$#@%$^
Max will be 38 in 2022 and if I could get the Max Scherzer of 2010 to 2021, boy I would be all over that! But a 38-year-old Max Scherzer ain’t that guy! He’s more like Justin Verlander, who essentially has not pitched in two years!
