Max and the Mets! Scherzer Officially Becomes a Member of the Amazin's

 Hours before Major League Baseball imposed a lockout of the players, the New York Mets officially introduced Max Scherzer to the New York media. 

The former Cy Young Award winner, who owned the Mets when he was the ace of the Washington Nationals, won a World Series in DC two years ago, and was undefeated with the Dodgers in the second half of last season, will join Jacob deGrom to form a formidable 1-2 punch. 

Scherzer signed a three-year $130 million deal, that will pay him $43.3 million annually, a new record for any individual player. 

Scherzer said his family, which lives close by the Mets spring training home in Port St. Lucie, and owner Steve Cohen's desire to win played a large role in Scherzer's decision to come to New York.
