Monday night baseball trivia: Who are the only three pitchers in MLB history

to record 160+ strikeouts and an ERA below 2.40 through their first 28 MLB games?

(I know 28 MLB games seems rather random, but I didn't make up the question, just stumbled upon it.)

The third player was active between 2010 and 2022.

So all three are of recent vintage.
