Boras not worried on Scherzer Baseball mega-agent Scott Boras says that hes not worried about a lack of a market for his client, Detroit Tigers free agent starter, Max Scherzer. Boras also countered early reports that the Tigers were no longer interested in retaining the services of the 2013 American League Cy Young Award winner. “I’ve never heard anything from anyone to suggest they’re not,” Boras told MLB Network Radios Jim Bowden and Jim Duquette on Sunday. “You have to remember that over the past 3-4 years, when you go back and look at the Detroit Tigers, as good as they are with all the offensive weaponry and pitching they have, when Max Scherzer pitches, they win 70% of their games. In all other games, the Tigers play at about 54%. So Max Scherzer has a huge impact on the success of the Detroit Tigers.” The 30-year-old Scherzer is among those at the top end of this years free agent starters along with Jon Lester of the Oakland Athletics and Kansas City Royals right-hander James Shields. Boras believes that a suitor for Scherzer might not be one with an obvious need for a starter and would sign him in a two-step process that involved trading an incumbent member of its rotation. “Say you need bullpen or you need catching or you need offense, whatever your other weakness, Boras explained. You can trade one of your good pitchers for someone like that and also then add a number one, which then strengthens your team in two areas. Scherzer finished 2014 at 18-5 with a 3.15 ERA and 1.175 WHIP in 220.1 innings over 33 starts. Derrick Rose Jersey .
