Leafs Morning Take

Max Scherzer Interview


Listen Later

Max Scherzer joins Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill on Leafs Morning Take for a can’t-miss crossover interview.


The three-time Cy Young winner opens up about his season in Toronto — what it was like to pitch in this market, the intensity of the fanbase, and how the pressure compares to every other stop in his career. Scherzer also pulls back the curtain on free agency: how the process is going, whether a return to Toronto is still on the table, and if he feels there’s unfinished business with the Blue Jays.


Plus, for the first time, Scherzer shares new details about his infamous ALCS showdown with John Schneider — what really happened, how it unfolded behind the scenes, and how he looks back on it now.


And because this is Leafs Morning Take, the boys tie plenty of it back to the blue and white. Scherzer talks killer instinct, character, leadership, and what it takes to perform under the heaviest spotlight. He even dives into how athletes mentally reset after heartbreak — including Toronto’s own pain point: Game 7 against Florida. Scherzer was in the building that night and gives his perspective on how close the Jays came to a World Series and how moments like that can shape a team.


A rare, honest, and electric conversation with one of the fiercest competitors in sports. Tune in.
