The Toronto Blue Jays and Max Scherzer have reached an agreement on a one-year deal worth US$3 million, according to multiple reports.
Scherzer, a two-time World Series champion and three-time Cy Young Award winner, played the 2025 season in Toronto on a one-year, $15 million contract.
The 41-year-old right-hander had a 5-5 record in 17 starts, with a 5.19 earned-run average in his lone campaign with the Jays.
He had a 3.77 ERA with 11 strikeouts in 14.1 innings across three starts in the post-season where Toronto fell to the Los Angeles Dodgers in seven games in the World Series.
