Admittedly it's just three starts, but this reminds me of the way Some scouts see Scherzer as a future closer rather than a starter, just like many folks thought Lincecum was better suited for the pen. Scherzer is best known for his high-velocity heater with sinking action, followed by a pretty good slider.So is he a two pitcher right now, or does he have a change to go along w/ that?He definitely won't be there since he hasn't been called up before. He hasn't given up any earned runs yet either and opposing batters are hitting .122 against him.I drafted him in my NL keeper league in the prospect draft...I am hoping for big things from him! Instead, it’s been a revamped offense that has led Detroit to a winning record so far.The Tigers finished last in the major leagues in runs and last in the American League in home runs a season ago. He won't get called up until Unit gets hurt or their other #5 options (Edgar Gonzalez, Petit) suck so much they decide to pull the trigger. It’s a good atmosphere in the clubhouse, and so far we’re doing OK.”Before the season started, one of the big questions for the Tigers was how much Casey Mize, Matt Manning and Tarik Skubal might contribute in 2020. They were tied for eighth in homers despite having a break in their schedule recently when a series against St. Louis was called off.“We like what we have. Scherzer, who has struck out 38 batters in four starts with a 1.17 ERA this season, threw an impressive 61 of his 84 pitches for strikes.If Gonzalez tanks on Thursday I think its a lock...If not I still bank on him getting called up within a month.Lincecum was one of those who was in the pool before playing his first MLB game. I have no inside info but I'm calling it right now. Max Scherzer fires back at owners crying poor.

Dbacks I think are the team to beat for the NL.Fastball/Slider sounds a lot like Joba. I was trying anything they brought to me,” he said.
