The freaky-eyed (seriously, one is like black and one is blue) Arizona number one draft pick made his major league debut tonight ... and pardon my French, but damn. Edgar Gonzalez, possibly fearing for the life of his rotation spot, lasted only 2.2 innings before he gave up six earned runs on eight hits and two walks.

Scherzer was brought up for extended relief and that's exactly what he did, pitching 4.1 perfect innings, striking out seven of the 13 batters that he faced on an insanely scant 46 pitches.

Look, Scherzer might not do that every time. In fact, he probably (definitely?) won't. But he has a good shot at getting a rotation spot with the Diamondbacks for the duration of the season, even if it's not immediately.
