Scherzer (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment Saturday, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.
The location of Scherzer's first rehab start is not yet known, nor is it clear how many rehab outings he might require before rejoining the Rangers' rotation. Scherzer was cleared for a rehab assignment after getting through a two-inning, live batting practice session Monday. The 40-year-old hurler has been shelved since early August due to right shoulder fatigue but recently made a mechanical adjustment which allowed the discomfort in his shoulder to dissipate.
