Blue Jays' Scherzer Dealing with Forearm Tendinitis

The 41-year-old pitcher stated he has been managing the issue for weeks and intends to stay off the injured list to pitch this weekend against the Minnesota Twins. Scherzer allowed two earned runs over two innings before exiting the game.

With the Blue Jays already missing starters Jose Berrios, Shane Bieber, and Trey Yesavage, Scherzer emphasized the need to preserve his arm. Veteran Patrick Corbin is a potential candidate to step into the rotation if further issues arise.
