MLB.com reported Tuesday, citing sources, that Texas and the Mets have agreed to a trade for Scherzer, who will move to Texas if the Mets waive the trade veto he exercised when he signed with them two years ago.
If the deal is finalized, Texas will be able to fill the void left by Jacob deGrom, whose season ended prematurely last month following right elbow surgery, with the three-time Cy Young Award winner.
Scherzer is 9-4 with a 4.01 ERA this season and is one of the best pitchers of his generation with a career record of 210-106 with a 3.15 ERA and 3,314 strikeouts.
His $43 million salary this year alone makes him the highest-paid player in MLB.
However, he has struggled this season with his velocity, giving up an average of 1.9 home runs per nine innings, the most in his 16th season in the big leagues.
Texas is approaching the lofty dream of “fall baseball” by leading the American League West, knocking last year’s World Series champion Houston Astros to second place.
