EDGE Analysis

EDGE Analysis

Brought in with the score tied at 2-2, Hoffman gave up back-to-back doubles to Gunnar Henderson and Adley Rutschman to hand Baltimore the victory. Hoffman hadn't pitched in a week, but the extra rest did nothing to help his performance, and the right-hander sports a 5.00 ERA through nine innings in July despite a 1.11 WHIP and 12:1 K:BB, as much of the contact he's allowed has been hard -- five of the nine hits he's given up this month have gone for extra bases (three doubles, two homers). Barring a huge addition to the Toronto bullpen at the trade deadline, though, Hoffman's hold on the closer role appears secure as he's converted seven straight save chances, with his last blown save coming June 22.

Hoffman has served up 10 homers in 43.1 innings this season, leading to a 4.78 ERA despite an impressive 60:11 K:BB and 1.06 WHIP, and as a result it's possible he could get bumped aside as Toronto's closer if the club makes a high-profile bullpen addition at the trade deadline.
