DETROIT -- Max Scherzer agreed to a one-year contract that leaves his future with the Detroit Tigers as uncertain as ever. D.J. Humphries Jersey . The AL Cy Young Award winners deal for 2014 is worth $15,525,000, and it enables Scherzer and the Tigers to avoid arbitration with the right-handers free agency still looming less than a year away. Scherzer could have an even bigger payday coming soon -- one way or another. He is eligible to go on the market after the season, although the Tigers would love to sign a long-term contract with him. General manager Dave Dombrowski said Friday this one-year agreement doesnt necessarily preclude a lengthier deal before opening day. "We still have that desire," Dombrowski said. Detroit announced Scherzers deal along with one-year agreements with right-handers Rick Porcello and Al Alburquerque, and outfielders Andy Dirks and Austin Jackson. All had filed for arbitration. Catcher Alex Avila is Detroits only remaining player who filed for arbitration without an agreement. The 29-year-old Scherzer went 21-3 with a 2.90 ERA and 240 strikeouts last season, and the Tigers advanced to the AL championship series against Boston. He made $6,725,000 last year, and another stellar season could put the right-hander in position for a contract similar to those of teammate Justin Verlander ($180 million for seven years) and Seattles Felix Hernandez ($175 million for seven) or even the Los Angeles Dodgers Clayton Kershaw ($215 million for seven). Porcello went 13-8 with a 4.32 ERA and a career-high 142 strikeouts in 2013. Alburquerque appeared in 53 games, posting a 4-3 record and a 4.59 ERA. Dirks hit .256 with 16 doubles, two triples, nine home runs and 37 RBIs. Jackson batted .272 with 30 doubles, seven triples, 12 homers and 49 RBIs. Detroit freed up some money by trading first baseman Prince Fielder and right-hander Doug Fister, but the Tigers also signed closer Joe Nathan. With Verlander and right-hander Anibal Sanchez already earning big money, Detroit faces a challenge trying to keep together an impressive core. Scherzers deal was announced a day after David Prices one-year agreement with Tampa Bay. Price, the 2012 AL Cy Young winner, agreed at $14 million. Verlander had core muscle repair surgery earlier this month, but hes expected back during spring training. If healthy, he and Scherzer form perhaps the best starting duo in baseball, with Sanchez, Porcello and Drew Smyly rounding out the rest of the rotation. Pat Tillman Cardinals Jersey .Taylor overcame a four-shot deficit Sunday to capture his maiden PGA Tour victory in just his 13th start on golfs top circuit. He shot 6-under-par 66 in his fianl round — despite a three-putt bogey on the 72nd hole — for a two-shot victory over Americans Boo Weekley and Jason Bohn. John Brown Jersey . -- Von Miller is back -- and bigger than ever.There is nothing like the ping of an aluminum bat in the cool spring air or the sight of a guy who bought his spot on the Goldeyes roster at a charity event – actually coming in TWICE to act as pinch runner -- or watching the Goldeyes score three runs in the eighth to put the game away without the benefit of a single hit. Yes, its the annual pre-season game between the University of Winnipeg Wesmen and the Winnipeg Goldeyes and its usually a crazy evening at the ballpark. It certainly was a crazy one on Friday night. This year, the Wesmen played a heck of a game, pinging out nine hits in an 8-4 loss to the local pro team. For the Goldeyes it was the final home game of the pre-season and while it probably didnt tell Rick Forney a lot about his new team, it did give his players a chance to have some fun at home before heading out for 16 days on the road. "I thought the Wesmen kids did a great job tonight," said Forney. "They played a real good baseball game. We saw a better team this year than last year, thats for sure. Their shortstop made two real good plays and the third baseman made a great play in the eighth. Their fundamentals were better than last year. Theyre improving. They gave us a real good baseball game." Left fielder Ryan Scoma was the player of the game for the Goldeyes, going three-for-three with two runs scored and an RBI. Fehlandt Lentini went two-for-five with a run scored and two drivven in. Chandler Jones Jersey. The Goldeyes scored three in the third, two in the sixth and then three in the eighth on four walks, two productive outs and two stolen bases. Forney also had a look at six pitchers. The only pitcher to struggle was Justin Garcia who gave up all four runs on four hits in the fourth inning. "Our pitchers had some trouble getting loose in the colder weather," said Forney. "The balls werent rubbed up and they didnt get a good feel for the baseball. And I thought our outfielders had some trouble picking up the ball off the aluminum bats, but we played good defense today and I was happy with a good days work." Nick Drews and Brendan Gaunt each had two hits for the Wesmen. Drews scored a run and also drove one in. The Wesmen starter Josh Loewen, in his final game at the university level, was the hard-luck loser. However, in 5.2 innings of work, he allowed five runs on 11 hits and didnt look out of place against a professional ball club. Aaron Correa earned the victory for the Goldeyes after throwing two scoreless innings. That was the final home pre-season game for the Goldeyes. The team will now head out onto the road, play in Fargo Saturday night and Sunday afternoon and then in Kansas and Wichita next week before opening the season in Grand Prairie, Texas next Friday night. The first home game is not until May 27 when the Laredo Lemurs open the season at Shaw Park.
