\n<\/aside>\nLOS ANGELES – Max Scherzer has a new injury to mend, but likely not one that will cost him additional time on the injured list.<\/p>\n
At home in Florida, the Mets right-hander was bitten by one of his dogs in recent days. Initially it was thought to be to his non-throwing hand di lui. <\/p>\n
A team official said late Saturday afternoon, however, that the dog bite was actually to Scherzer’s throwing hand, not his left hand, but that it won’t set him back further in his rehab. Scherzer is on the IL with an oblique strain and rehabbing for a potential July return to the Mets.<\/p>\n
Scherzer’s dog bite occurred in a week when Francisco Lindor jammed his right middle finger in the double doors in his hotel suite and missed a game. Lindor, diagnosed with a fracture, returned to the Mets’ lineup Friday night.<\/p>\n
Before the Mets opened their four-game series against the Dodgers that is continuing through the weekend, manager Buck Showalter said the 37-year-old Scherzer’s rehab from the oblique strain was progressing in a satisfactory manner.<\/p>\nMax Scherzer is still recovering from an oblique strain.<\/figcaption>AP<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n \n“Who knows what he is doing away from the [complex], he has probably had four or five sides by now, \u201dShowalter said. “His ‘want to’ is off the charts, but from what we can tell he is doing well.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
