NEW YORK (AP) — Max Scherzer returned to Citi Field on Monday as a member of the Texas Rangers — still mystified as to how the New York Mets’ season, which began with championship hopes for a team with the largest payroll in major league history, unspooled to the point that he was part of a trade-deadline selloff.“That’s a billion-dollar question, because if you could answer that question, I think everybody would want to tell you how you actually win here at the major league level,” Scherzer said in the Rangers’ dugout before the opener of a three-game series against the Mets.The three-time Cy Young Award winner, who made his fifth start for Texas on Saturday, will not pitch this week against the Mets, who entered Monday last in the NL East and nine games out of a playoff spot. New York hasn’t finished in last place since 2003 and hasn’t been in last place this late in a season since 2005.“I don’t know,” Scherzer said. “It was just a combination of everything. It just seemed like wh...
