It's April 7th. This is MLB News today, powered by AI, you're around the diamond update. I'm Cory with the story. Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Kevin Galsman is off to a scorching start in the 2026 season, dropping jaws with back-to-back gems. This two-time all-star has racked up at least 10 strikeouts with zero walks in each of his first two outings, a feat no one's pulled off since that. At least 1900, he's already got 21 strikeouts over 12 innings, allowing just one earned run for a sparkling 0.75 ERA. That's put him at 0.7 wins above replacement, just two starts in, building on a solid 3.8 from last year. MLB stats guru Sarah Langs highlighted how rare this is, noting only a handful of aces like Garrett Cole, Claying Kershaw, and Chris Archer have done. Three in a row, at any point. As an analyst are buzzing about Galsman joining that elite club early, the Jays are banged up bad, especially in the rotation with Cody Ponds, the latest sideline, leaving them thin

and desperate for every quality inning. Galsman's dominance is carrying them right now. He gets the ball Tuesday against the Los Angeles Dodgers, where another 10 plus K-game, with no free passes, could make history. Keep an eye on this streak, it might just spark Toronto's whole rotation.
