Max Scherzer made an appearance at the podium Wednesday as Mets pitchers and catchers reported to Port St. Lucie at the start of spring training. After his 2022 season ended up marred with oblique injuries, Scherzer made sure to note that he has a goal of pitching 200 innings in 2023.

Avisail Garcia beat the shift for a single. Things remained...
