Out at least six weeks Scherzer was diagnosed with a moderate to high-grade oblique strain Thursday and will miss 6-to-8 weeks, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Impact Scherzer pulled himself from his start Wednesday against the Cardinals with what was originally called left side discomfort, but a more serious diagnosis always appeared likely. That diagnosis has indeed come following an MRI on Thursday. The given timeline means Scherzer should be back sometime in the first half of July, barring setbacks. With Jacob deGrom (shoulder) and Tylor Megill (biceps) also out, Trevor Williams appears to have a safe rotation spot for now, with David Peterson likely to get an opportunity as well.

Impact Scherzer left his start Wednesday against the Cardinals with what was originally referred to as left side discomfort.

Impact Scherzer exited his start in Wednesday's win over the Cardinals with what the team labeled as "left side discomfort," but the MRI should help clarify whether or not he's dealing with an oblique strain. The Mets will likely follow up on Scherzer's status no later than Friday, but for the time being, a trip to the injured list remains in play for the three-time Cy Young Award winner. Per DiComo, manager Buck Showalter also relayed after Wednesday's contest that Scherzer has been pitching through multiple blisters on his pitching hand for his last two starts, which could also factor into the team's decision on whether to put him on the IL.

Scherzer exits with injury to side, Mets deck Cards 11-4
Max Scherzer pulled himself from a start with discomfort in his left side before the New York Mets finished off an 11-4 victory over the St. Louis CardinalsMAY 19, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Battling side discomfort Scherzer was diagnosed with left side discomfort after exiting Wednesday's start against the Cardinals, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Impact The good news is Scherzer isn't dealing with an arm injury, though a side issue could mean problems with the oblique, which is often a troublesome injury to recover from. The 37-year-old pitched well Wednesday before the injury flared up and was in line for the victory after giving up two runs (one earned) on seven hits with four strikeouts and zero walks over 5.2 innings. It remains to be seen if Scherzer will be available for his next turn through the rotation, and he'll undergo medical testing Thursday.

MAY 19, 2022 • NORTHJERSEY.COM
Pulled from Wednesday's start Scherzer was removed from Wednesday's game against the Cardinals with an apparent injury, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Impact The veteran right-hander threw a pitch in the dirt with two outs and runners on first and second during the sixth inning, and he left the contest after gesturing to the coaching staff after the pitch. He didn't appear to suffer an obvious injury, but it's a concerning development given how Scherzer typically fights to stay in as long as possible. He exited in line for the victory and allowed two runs (one earned) on seven hits with four strikeouts and zero walks over 5.2 innings.
