With the D-Backs.
He was the 11th overall pick last year.
Yesterday was the final day to sign picks from last year. This year you have to sign the guys you want by August 15.
Boras is his agent. He said that Scherzer was the 2nd best pitcher in last years draft behind Luke Hochevar. Which is obviously wrong, Tim Lincecum, Andrew Miller, and Greg Reynolds were all better. Of course Boras was just trying to hype his client.
He got 4 million and an MLB contract.

God I'd kill to be a Diamondbacks fan right now. Such an exciting team...tons of good young talent...no bad contracts....sigh.

The only thing about this signing is that there are a lot of scouts that think he will be a reliever in the future. He puts a lot of stress on his elbow in his delivery and the scouts don't think he will be able to go 200 innings a year.
And I would hate to give a reliever a 4 million dollar signing bonus...
