Scherzer Re-signs with Blue Jays on a $3 Million, Incentive-Laden One-Year Deal.

Max Scherzer agreed to a one-year, $3 million contract with the Toronto Blue Jays, including up to $10 million in incentives that start at 65 innings pitched and no-trade protection. The 41-year-old veteran, who helped Toronto reach the World Series last year, posted a 5.19 ERA in 17 regular-season starts in 2025 but a 3.77 ERA across three postseason starts, and his durability remains a factor as the Jays manage rotation depth for 2026.
