Blue Jays’ Max Scherzer Pulled After Two Innings vs. Dodgers

Published April 6, 2026 · Updated April 7, 2026 · Sportsnet

Blue Jays veteran Max Scherzer was pulled in the third inning of Monday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers, tossing just 36 pitches and allowing two runs.

Scherzer was replaced by Josh Fleming, with the 41-year-old noting he felt "OK" despite averaging 92.1 mph on his fastball, a significant drop from his first start of 2026. This marks the second consecutive day a Toronto starter was removed early, following Eric Lauer's exit on Sunday due to illness.
