How does this make you feel?
Jeff Hoffman began the season strong with a 1.17 ERA for the Blue Jays after a tumultuous offseason where he sought a lucrative contract, ultimately signing for $33 million over three years. However, his performance has declined, allowing 15 earned runs and five homers in his last 10 innings, bringing his overall ERA to 5.81, similar to the struggling Jordan Romano’s 7.36. The Phillies, facing bullpen challenges since Jose Alvarado’s suspension, are looking for reliable arms as the trade deadline approaches, with Hoffman’s presence highlighting their past depth in late-inning relief.
