MRI coming Wednesday Scherzer (triceps) will undergo an MRI on Wednesday, Julia Kreuz of MLB.com reports.
Impact Scherzer was forced to leave Tuesday's game after 73 pitches due to the sensation he felt in his right shoulder and upper arm. The triceps issue is different from the right forearm tightness Scherzer experienced recently, but the right-hander postulated there could be a connection. More will be learned following Wednesday's MRI.

Tosses side session Scherzer (forearm) completed a bullpen session Sunday, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.
Impact The Rangers will likely check back in with Scherzer and see how he's feeling Monday, but if he came out of the side session no worse for the wear, he should be able to make his next turn through the rotation Wednesday versus Houston. Scherzer relayed that he felt tightness in his forearm during his last start Friday against the Twins, but it didn't prevent him from striking out seven over six scoreless frames before he exited the contest.

Impact While the phrase "forearm tightness" is an ominous one in baseball, Scherzer said he was not injured and feels it's not serious enough to prevent him from pitching. "My forearm was just kind of fatigued, but I was able to pitch today," he said. The pitcher emphasized that he was okay during his six innings but did not want to extend the outing with the issue in his forearm, thereby potentially impacting future starts. Texas manager Bruce Bochy also downplayed the issue, telling MLB.com that "it's more of a fatigue thing." The team will monitor Scherzer for the next few days and see where the right-hander is at when it comes time to throw his in-between starts bullpen.
