"Patrick Corbin, making his Blue Jays debut, went four innings and gave up four runs on six hits, striking out three hitters and allowing two home runs."
"Lauer had one of his worst outings as a Blue Jay, giving up seven runs on five hits in 5.1 innings pitched. He walked five, struck out three and also allowed two home runs."
"Scherzer lasted just 2.1 innings and gave up eight runs on five hits. He also allowed two home runs, while walking two and striking out three."
"The starters combined for 11.1 innings pitched, six home runs, 18 earned runs on 16 hits and eight walks."
The Toronto Blue Jays have shown potential to win in various ways, but their performance in 2026 has been inconsistent. After a 6-9 start, recent games against the Minnesota Twins revealed significant issues with their starting pitchers. Patrick Corbin, Eric Lauer, and Max Scherzer all had poor outings, combining for 11.1 innings pitched, allowing 18 earned runs and six home runs. The team's ability to replicate their winning strategies from 2025 has been hindered by these struggles on the mound.
