Max Scherzer remains on the market as January approaches, a surprise to no one given how agent Scott Boras has operated in the past.

A number of clubs could use an legitimate ace, but a return to the Detroit Tigers isn't out of the question.

Scherzer's chances of returning to Detroit are tied to the future of David Price, who will hit the market soon.

"If the Tigers get the sense that David Price won't re-sign, that could help Scherzer's cause," writes Nick Cafardo.
