Max Scherzer of Toronto Blue Jays Placed on 60-Day Injured List Due to Right Thumb Inflammation

Max Scherzer's absence impacts the Toronto Blue Jays' pitching rotation. He made only one start this season, pitching three innings with an ERA of 6.00 and a WHIP of 1.00. This injury follows a recent stint on the 15-day injured list for the same thumb issue.

With Scherzer out, the Blue Jays will rely more on other starters like José Berríos and Kevin Gausman. The upcoming game against the Los Angeles Angels could see changes in the rotation. Scherzer's return will not happen soon, as he is on the 60-day injured list.
