The Blue Jays are bringing back pitcher Max Scherzer on a one-year, $3 million deal, with $10 million in incentives up for grabs, for his 19th MLB season. And Scherzer’s eight-year-old daughter might’ve played a role in his return to Toronto.
After the Blue Jays lost in Game 7 of the World Series to the Dodgers back in November, Scherzer’s daughter wrote a sweet letter to the team kindly asking them to bring her dad back for another year. It sounds like the Scherzer family really loved living in Toronto, and she wasn’t ready to leave.
