Scherzer not concerned about the cold: Tigers SP Max Scherzer says pitching in Detroit after working in Arizona won't be a problem, according to The Sports Xchange. Scherzer often worked in 30-degree spring weather as a college pitcher in Missouri and didn't mind it. "I have definitely made that adjustment before, and once I made the adjustment, I actually preferred pitching in the cold weather," Scherzer said.

Fantasy Analysis
For the first time as a pro, Scherzer made it through a full season without an issue with his delicate shoulder last year. He is quietly one of the potential future aces of Fantasy, especially with a contender in Detroit. You will be taking a mild risk on him among the top 50 starting pitchers on Draft Day, but he legitimately has top 10 talent. As long as he stays healthy, he will register a strikeout-plus per inning, allow less than a hit per inning and dominate good teams on any given night. He is now right around the category of a third-year starting pitcher, so Scherzer could be a breakout candidate in 2010.
