  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Secures 15th save

    Hoffman struck out one and gave up a solo home run in the ninth inning Saturday to record his 15th save of the season in a 5-4 win over the Twins.

    Kody Clemens made things interesting by turning on a 96.6-mph fastball, but Hoffman otherwise had little trouble handling the bottom of the Minnesota order. The right-hander has converted five straight save chances, but keeping the ball in the yard remains an issue -- Hoffman has served up seven homers in 28.2 innings this year, saddling him with a 5.65 ERA despite a 1.12 WHIP and 42:8 K:BB.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Strikes out three for 14th save

    Hoffman came away with the save in Friday's 6-4 win over the Twins after striking out three batters and walking one in a scoreless ninth inning.

    Hoffman was brought in for the ninth to protect the Blue Jays' two-run lead. He walked Byron Buxton after striking out the first two batters, but Hoffman closed the door for Toronto by punching out Trevor Larnach. It marked the sixth time this season that Hoffman has recorded at least three strikeouts. The 32-year-old right-hander is 14-for-17 in save opportunities this season with a 5.53 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 41:8 K:BB across 27.2 innings.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Collects one-out win

    Hoffman (5-2) picked up the win Wednesday over the Phillies, giving up a hit and recording one out.

    Facing the team he developed into a shutdown reliever with over the prior two years, Hoffman entered a 1-1 game with two outs in the top of the ninth inning and gave up a single to Alec Bohm before closing out the frame. The right-hander then got rewarded with a win when Alejandro Kirk poked a walk-off single in the bottom of the ninth. Hoffman has had trouble avoiding blowups this season, but he's held the opposition scoreless in six of his last eight appearances while collecting two wins and four saves in five chances. On the season, Hoffman sports a 5.74 ERA that isn't reflected by his 1.13 WHIP or 38:7 K:BB in 26.2 innings.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Barely escapes with 13th save

    Hoffman gave up two runs on two hits and a walk in the ninth inning Saturday to record his 13th save of the season in an 8-7 win over the A's. He struck out one.

    Keeping the ball in the yard was once again an issue for Hoffman, who served up a two-run blast to Brent Rooker with two outs. The right-hander's woes didn't end there -- his next pitch after the homer resulted in a double for Tyler Soderstrom, and Hoffman only avoided blowing the save when Ernie Clement robbed Shea Langeliers of a line-drive RBI single with a diving catch. Hoffman wraps up a nightmarish May with a 13.50 ERA over 10 innings thanks largely to five home runs allowed, and he blew three of his 10 save chances. Toronto hasn't indicated his job as closer is in jeopardy as of yet, but the 32-year-old will need to turn things around quickly in June to keep it that way.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Throws clean ninth inning for save

    Hoffman picked up the save in Wednesday's 2-0 win over the Rangers after throwing a clean ninth inning. He struck out one.

    It was Hoffman's fourth spotless outing in his last five appearances, as he continues to recover from several implosions in May. His ERA still stands at 13.00 in nine innings this month, but the hard-throwing right-hander does sport a 13:5 K:BB during this stretch and continues to operate as Toronto's clear-cut closer despite his struggles. With Yimi Garcia (shoulder) and Nick Sandlin (lat) both on the injured list, the Blue Jays are depending on Hoffman even more for ninth-inning work.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Secures 11th save Monday

    Hoffman secured the save in Monday's 2-1 win over the Rangers after throwing a scoreless ninth inning with no strikeouts.

    It was the 11th save of the season for Hoffman, who's looking to overcome what's been a dreadful month of May to this point. Over his last eight innings, the hard-throwing right-hander owns a 14.63 ERA, 2.13 WHIP and 12:5 K:BB while converting just five of his eight save chances. The Blue Jays have continued to demonstrate trust in Hoffman as their closer, and they'll likely have to lean even more heavily on him for ninth-inning work as long as Yimi Garcia (shoulder) is recovering on the injured list.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Blows third save

    Hoffman picked up his third blown save of the season, surrendering two runs on two hits while striking out one in Thursday's 7-6 extra-innings win against the Padres.

    The month of May continues to be a struggle for Hoffman with all three of his blown saves coming in the last couple weeks. In his last eight appearances, the 31-year-old has allowed 13 runs, and his ERA has ballooned up to 6.04 after an April that saw him finish at 1.17. Hoffman's 13.7 K/9 is still elite, so his closer spot perhaps isn't in danger just yet, but he'll likely have to regain his footing soon to retain the closer role over the likes of Yimi Garcia and Chad Green.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Sharp while securing 10th save

    Hoffman earned the save Tuesday against the Padres after throwing a clean ninth inning. He struck out one.

    Hoffman was sharp, making quick work of the heart of San Diego's batting order while hurling eight of his nine pitches for strikes. Tuesday marked a second consecutive scoreless outing for the hard-throwing right-hander, who had yielded 11 runs over his previous three innings of work. The Blue Jays have shown trust in Hoffman as their closer after signing him to a three-year contract this past offseason, and the 32-year-old righty carries a 1.13 WHIP and 32:5 K:BB while converting 10 of his 12 save opportunities despite a shaky 5.48 ERA across 21.1 innings in 2025.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Nabs win in ninth Saturday

    Hoffman (4-2) walked one in a scoreless ninth inning Saturday to pick up the win in a 2-1 victory over the Tigers.

    With the score tied 1-1, Toronto's closer was brought in to work the top of the ninth and saw a leadoff walk erased on a double play started by Nathan Lukes, who threw out Gleyber Torres trying to tag up and advance to second base on a fly ball deep into the left-field corner. Hoffman then collected the win on Ernie Clement's walk-off single in the bottom of the frame. It was a reassuring effort from Hoffman after he got tagged for five runs in one-third of an inning during his previous appearance, but he's having an awful May overall with a 19.80 ERA in five innings while going just 3-for-5 in save chances.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Allows five runs in loss

    Hoffman (3-2) was charged with a blown save and the loss Tuesday against the Rays after allowing five runs on four hits and a walk while picking up a strikeout as the only out he recorded.

    Hoffman entered to begin the ninth protecting a one-run lead and got off on the right foot with a strikeout, but everything went downhill from there. He proceeded to give up three singles and a walk before Junior Caminero launched a grand slam to put the Rays up 11-7. Hoffman's now allowed 11 runs in his last five appearances after allowing just two runs in 16.1 innings prior to his recent struggles. He's up to a 6.05 ERA but still sports an excellent 31:4 K:BB in 19.1 innings.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Strikes out side for save

    Hoffman struck out three in a perfect inning to earn the save in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Mariners.

    Hoffman picked up his second save in as many days with this effort. He needed 17 pitches (11 strikes) to get the job done, but it was another encouraging outing after his struggles earlier in the week versus the Angels that saw him surrender six runs in two appearances. The closer is up to nine saves in 10 chances while pitching to a 3.79 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 30:3 K:BB across 19 innings this season. Since he's pitched four of the last five days, Hoffman may not be available for any potential save chances in Sunday's getaway day game.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Earns eighth save Friday

    Hoffman struck out three without giving up a hit or a walk in a scoreless inning to earn the save in Friday's 6-3 win over the Mariners.

    Hoffman allowed one batter to reach on a wild pitch, but the Blue Jays' lead was never in danger. The right-hander had allowed three runs in back-to-back appearances, and he took a blown save and a loss in Wednesday's game versus the Angels. This was a bounce-back effort, and it's encouraging the Blue Jays went right back to him after Chad Green picked up a spot save Thursday with Hoffman resting. Hoffman's recent struggles have his ERA up to 4.00 with a 1.00 WHIP and 27:3 K:BB over 18 innings, and he's added eight saves in nine chances as Toronto's main closer.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Has second straight poor outing

    Hoffman (3-1) took the loss and blew a save against the Angels on Wednesday, allowing three runs on three hits and one walk while striking out one batter in one-third of an inning.

    Hoffman had the opportunity to notch his eighth save in eight chances when he entered with a two-run lead in the ninth inning, but he instead walked away with his first blown save of the campaign. The right-handed closer allowed the first three batters he faced to reach base, and after striking out Taylor Ward, he served up a bases-clearing, walk-off double to Jorge Soler. It was the second straight blow-up for Hoffman against the Angels -- on Tuesday, he also surrendered three runs over one-third of an inning in a non-save situation. Prior to the pair of ugly outings, Hoffman had allowed just two runs over 16.1 frames to begin the season.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Tallies seventh save

    Hoffman logged a save in Friday's 5-3 win over the Guardians, allowing one hit and one walk while striking out one batter in a scoreless ninth inning.

    Hoffman was brought in for the ninth inning to preserve a two-run lead, but it wasn't an easy going for the 32-year-old right-hander. He had runners on second and third after yielding a walk and a double, but Hoffman was able to escape unscathed after getting Gabriel Arias to ground out to third base. Hoffman needed 26 pitches (16 strikes) to secure his seventh save of the season, which may impact his availability for Saturday's contest.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Secures third win

    Hoffman (3-0) struck out three over two perfect innings of relief Wednesday to pick up the win in an extra-inning victory over the Red Sox.

    After shutting down Boston in the ninth inning, Hoffman stayed on the mound for the 10th and was rewarded when the Blue Jays walked it off in the bottom of the frame. The 32-year-old right-hander has been needed more than one inning in three of his last seven appearances, racking up three wins and three saves during that span with a 0.90 ERA, 0.50 WHIP and 16:1 K:BB over 10 innings. Hoffman hadn't worked since Sunday, so he was well rested, but after tossing 27 pitches Wednesday he likely won't be available should a save situation arise Thursday in the series finale against the Red Sox.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Grabs sixth save

    Hoffman earned the save in Friday's 4-2 win over the Yankees, allowing one hit and striking out one batter in a scoreless ninth inning. He did not issue a walk.

    Hoffman got the call to come in for the ninth inning to preserve a 4-2 Toronto lead. He yielded a two-out double to Ben Rice, but Hoffman finished things off on a Paul Goldschmidt pop out. Hoffman is up to six saves on the season (tied for fifth in the American League) and has a 1.35 ERA, 0.68 WHIP and 19:1 K:BB across 13.1 innings.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Excelling as closer so far

    Hoffman picked up the save after throwing a clean ninth inning in Friday's win over Seattle. He struck out two.

    The Mariners made Hoffman work Friday, as the right-hander won a seven-pitch sequence against Randy Arozarena and an eight-pitch battle versus Dylan Moore by way of the punchout. The hard-throwing Hoffman has excelled as Toronto's closer to begin the season, posting a 1.59 ERA, 0.62 WHIP and a pristine 16:1 K:BB over 11.1 innings. The righty is a perfect 5-for-5 in save opportunities so far.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Secures fourth save

    Hoffman gave up one run on one hit while striking out one in the ninth inning Wednesday to record his fourth save of the season in a 3-1 win over Atlanta.

    The Toronto closer served up a solo shot to Drake Baldwin to ruin a combined shutout bid, but otherwise Hoffman was in control once again. The right-hander is 4-for-4 in save chances to begin his first season as the unquestioned top option in a big-league bullpen, posting a 1.74 ERA, 0.68 WHIP and 14:1 K:BB through 10.1 innings.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Nabs win in extras

    Hoffman (2-0) picked up the win in Sunday's extra-inning victory over the Orioles, allowing one hit over two scoreless innings and striking out four.

    The Toronto closer entered a 6-6 tie in the ninth inning, and stuck around for the 10th after the Blue Jays pushed across a run in the top of the final frame. Hoffman tossed 24 pitches (18 strikes) in the appearance, which could make him unavailable Monday should the team have a late lead to protect against Atlanta. Through his first 9.1 innings with the Jays, Hoffman has a 0.96 ERA, 0.64 WHIP and dominant 13:1 K:BB while converting all three of his save chances.

  • Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Earns third save Wednesday

    Hoffman picked up his third save of the season in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Nationals. He gave up one run on three hits while striking out one batter in the ninth inning.

    Hoffman needed only eight pitches to notch his second save of the year Tuesday, but he faced tougher resistance in Wednesday's bout. He quickly registered the first two outs of the ninth frame, but he proceeded to allow three straight hits, including an RBI double to Nathaniel Lowe, before a caught stealing ended the contest. Hoffman has secured a save in all three chances he's had and has tossed just 18 pitches across his last two outings.
