3 years agoNew York Mets starting pitcher Max Scherzer is ready to play ball and will be at the team's spring camp on Day 1 on Friday despite being one of the more vocal detractors of the new collective bargaining agreement during player deliberations on Thursday. Before the lockout in early December, Scherzer and the Mets agreed on a three-year, $130 million deal that includes an opt-out clause after the 2023 season. The $43.3 million annual average value of the 37-year-old's deal is the most in MLB history. Scherzer and Jacob deGrom give the Mets the best one-two punch in a rotation in baseball, and possibly in all of MLB history. Scherzer is no spring chicken, but he remains a strong No. 1 fantasy starter until he proves otherwise.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
