Jeff Hoffman Stumbles in Save Situation on Tuesday, Falling into Committee
Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Jeff Hoffman struggled again in a save situation Tuesday, allowing one run on two hits and hitting two batters while recording just one out in a 4-2 win. Hoffman has now allowed seven runs across his last four appearances, and his ERA has climbed to 7.59 through 10.2 innings this season. His command has been inconsistent, and his inability to limit damage in key moments is becoming a concern. Hoffman showed flashes of high-end ability last year, but those stretches have not carried over. If these struggles continue, his hold on the closer role will weaken and Toronto may explore other options.
