Jeff Hoffman Allows Five Runs in Fourth Loss, Time to Cut in All Leagues?
Toronto Blue Jays relief pitcher Jeff Hoffman was roughed up during Saturday's game against the Baltimore Orioles, letting his fantasy value continue to slip away. Hoffman had an ugly outing Saturday, allowing five runs on three hits and two walks while recording just one out. He had entered with no outs in the ninth inning while leading by four runs, and he exited with the Jays down by one. As a result, Hoffman was charged with the loss, dropping him to 4-4 with a 6.31 ERA, five saves, and three blown saves this year. His 15.78 K/9 and 3.51 BB/9 are solid rates, but his inability to handle leverage spots (as well as his .858 OPS) makes him droppable in most fantasy baseball leagues. As long as Hoffman continues to be unreliable, managers should pivot to other leverage relievers who have higher fantasy floors and ceilings.
