ARLINGTON — Max Scherzer was asked on a podcast two weeks ago if he would consider waiving his no-trade clause if the Rangers happened to be in an unfavorable position come July 30.

Scherzer, at the time, was adamant that he didn’t even need to think about that, despite the Rangers’ place in the standings.

“We’re gonna play better baseball,” Scherzer said at the time. “It’s gonna be a moot point to even talk about. We’re gonna win here.”

It seems that Scherzer was prophetic. The Rangers are playing better. Much better.

Scherzer tossed six innings of one-run ball on Thursday afternoon at Globe Life Field, carrying the Rangers to a 2-1 win over the White Sox to bring their win streak to a season-high-tying five games.

After battling arm fatigue in his first start out of the All-Star break last week against the Orioles, he seemed fresher than ever against Chicago. Scherzer struck out three batters over the first two innings, and nine overall to sit in sole possession of 10th place on MLB’s all-time strikeouts list with 3,400. He broke a tie with former teammate Justin Verlander, who is currently on the injured list for the Astros.
