Scherzer (ankle) 'felt no pain' in workout MondayFebruary 22, 2021 | 07:41 PM

Nationals manager Dave Martinez said Max Scherzer (ankle) "felt no pain" during a workout Monday. Analysis: Scherzer is being held away from mound work for now after spraining his left ankle during conditioning drills two weeks before the start of camp, but it seems like the Nats are simply playing things safe here in late February. The veteran right-hander still has time to get ramped up before the opening of the 2021 regular season and is currently going as the eighth starte off the board in the average Yahoo leagues.
