Shcerzer gave up 4 runs to the Chlorado Rockies, and then five more to the San Diego Padres, raising his ERA to 2.46.

Among the Cy Young candidates are Walker Buehler, Corbin Burnes and Max Scherzer with the following numbers:

Scherzer, 15-4, 2.46 ERA, 179.1 innings, 236 strikeouts.
Buehler, 15-4, 2.49, 202.1 innings, 201 strikeouts
Burnes, 11-4, 2.29 ERA, 165 innings, 230 strikeouts.

Without Machado’s home run, Scherzer’s ERA would be 2.36, 10 points less than Walker Bueheler’s 13 already has, one more reason to give him the Cy Young. However, he is now only 3 points behind Buehelr, who has 22 more innings than Scherzer and the same record.

Scherzer, 15-4, 2.36 ERA, 179.1 innings, 236 strikeouts.
Buehler, 15-4, 2.49, 202.1 innings, 201 strikeouts
