Scherzer (6-2) earned the win over Houston on Monday, allowing one run on four hits and one walk while striking out eight batters over eight innings.

EDGE Analysis

Scherzer had been struggling coming into the contest, giving up 11 runs over nine innings across his previous two starts. He rebounded in impressive fashion against the reigning World Series champions, recording a season-high eight frames during which he yielded just one run. Scherzer posted his fifth quality start of the campaign and improved his ERA to 4.04 with the dominant outing. He's struck out at least eight batters in four of his past five starts after failing to reach that mark in each of his first seven appearances this season.

Scherzer did not factor into the decision Tuesday, allowing six runs on seven hits over 3.1 innings in a 7-6 loss against the Yankees. He struck out two.

EDGE Analysis

Scherzer imploded in the fourth inning against the Yankees, allowing five runs on six hits before he was pulled. The 38-year-old Scherzer's now allowed 11 runs over his last two starts (nine innings). His ERA is up to 4.45 with a 1.24 WHIP and 60:14 K:BB through 11 starts (56.2 innings) this season. Scherzer will look to get back on track in his next outing, currently scheduled for this weekend against the Cardinals.

Scherzer allowed five runs on 11 hits and no walks while striking out 10 batters over 5.2 innings in a no-decision against Atlanta on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

It was an up-and-down outing for the veteran hurler. On one hand, he struck out a season-high 10 batters and didn't walk anybody while inducing 19 whiffs. On the other, Scherzer gave up a season-high 11 hits and surrendered five runs. Given the quality of the opponent, this start probably isn't going to slow down Scherzer's recent momentum too much, especially considering the multiple positive takeaways. The right-hander still boasts a standout 2.35 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 38:4 K:BB over 30.2 frames across his past five starts.

Scherzer (5-2) earned the win Thursday, allowing two runs (one earned) on five hits and a walk over seven innings against Philadelphia. He struck out nine.

EDGE Analysis

Scherzer has now won three of his last four starts, allowing just three earned runs over 25 innings in that span while logging 28 strikeouts. The 38-year-old ace has returned to form after a shaky start to the season. Scherzer's ERA is down to 3.21 with a 1.09 WHIP and 48:14 K:BB through nine starts (47.2 innings) this season. He's tentatively lined up to face Atlanta on the road in his next outing.

Scherzer (4-2) earned the win Friday, allowing one run on six hits over seven innings against Colorado. He struck out eight and did not walk a batter.

EDGE Analysis

Scherzer has been dealing ever since struggling against the Tigers on May 3, when he coughed up six runs in 3.1 innings. The future Hall of Famer has allowed just two runs combined across his three starts since then, and appears to be finally settled in after dealing with a 10-day suspension and neck spasms over the last few weeks. The right-hander is tentatively slated to face the Phillies at home in his next start.

Scherzer didn't factor in the decision in Game 1 of Sunday's doubleheader against Cleveland after he allowed three hits and one walk across six scoreless innings. He struck out five.

EDGE Analysis

The 37-year-old was on track for his fourth win of the season with the Mets leading 3-0 after seven innings, but Adam Ottavino and David Robertson surrendered four runs during the eighth. Scherzer missed out on the win but still delivered his best start of the season, with Sunday's outing being the first time in six starts since Opening Day he's completed six frames. According to Tim Healey of Newsday, Scherzer pitched with some raw skin on his thumb due to a split callus, though the fact he effectively pitched through the issue indicates it shouldn't be a problem moving forward.

Scherzer won't start Saturday against the Guardians as scheduled, as the game has been postponed due to rain.

EDGE Analysis

The game will be made up as part of a doubleheader Sunday. Scherzer will take the hill for the afternoon game, per Tim Healey of Newsday.

Scherzer (3-2) gave up one earned run on two hits and two walks while striking out six in five innings en route to the win Sunday against the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

This was Scherzer's first start since giving up six earned runs in 3.1 innings May 3 in Detroit, so it's nice to see him back on track, especially since noting a week ago that he has been pitching through shoulder discomfort in addition to his recent neck spasms. Scherzer lines up to pitch at home this weekend against Cleveland.

Scherzer (neck) will start the second game of a doubleheader against the Nationals on Sunday, Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mets manager Buck Showalter has not decided who will be the starter for the first game as of yet. The team will be able to call up a 27th player for the twin billing after Saturday's game was postponed due to rain, and it's possible New York could call on one of their arms from Triple-A Syracuse to start the game. Scherzer will be pitching for just the second time since April 10 because of a 10-game suspension and a bout with spasms in his neck.

Scherzer (neck) told Chelsea Janes of The Washington Post on Friday that he will start Sunday against the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis
