Max Scherzer said he feels confident that he has figured out what was causing a nerve issue that has kept him from pitching for a month, and the three-time Cy Young Award winner is ready to rehab to get back on the mound for the Texas Rangers.
Scherzer said Saturday that a change in mechanics alleviated the irritation of the triceps nerve that was only happening when he was pitching. He came out of a full bullpen session Friday without any pain.
"I feel like I can overcome this, because there's nothing wrong. ... I don't have an injury here. This was just nerve irritation," Scherzer said. "I feel like I potentially have solved this, and now I can actually build back up."
