On the Max Scherzer page, the Dodgers should be added to his teams as he has been traded to them as of July 30th, 2021. TheMemeMakerGuy (talk) 21:21, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't get added to that list until he appears in a game. Spanneraol (talk) 22:07, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Change "who is currently a free agent" to "for the New York Mets" MudkipOfDespair (talk) 19:04, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 19:13, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

MudkipOfDespair, this is a reported sports transaction. The reporting is based on anonymous sources and awaiting an official announcement. We are not a breaking news site. We reflect transactions after they happen, not before. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:25, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Literally MLB.com, the website for literal Major League Baseball, has announced it you dunce — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.102.231.116 (talk) 00:49, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

First off, be civil and assume good faith, including making no personal attacks. Secondly, no they didn't. The article on MLB.com says The deal, which the Mets have not confirmed because it is not yet official,... That is not an "announcement". – Muboshgu (talk) 00:56, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Not A FA[edit]

He’s a professional baseball player for the new york mets 2601:19B:C401:62B0:9C9:999B:216F:A312 (talk) 20:59, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

See above. – Muboshgu (talk) 00:56, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Signed With Mets[edit]

Scherzer was signed on a 3 year, $130 million dollar deal. BaseballHOFPlayers (talk) 02:40, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@BaseballHOFPlayers: The Mets have not yet officially announced that they've signed Scherzer. Per this, we don't update a player's team information until there has been a direct announcement from that team confirming the signing. --Zander251 (talk) 04:36, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The Mets announced a while ago. BaseballHOFPlayers (talk) 23:20, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

BaseballHOFPlayers, yes, and we updated the page when they did. – Muboshgu (talk) 23:21, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

middle name[edit]

we need a source that says hes middle name is martin 108.28.166.168 (talk) 22:54, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Baseball-Reference.com usually has middle names, and I've added the existing BR ref tag after the full name in the lead. Larry Hockett (Talk) 23:27, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

old refs[edit]

References 97 and 98 are no longer working 71.206.10.155 (talk) 00:11, 30 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
