Jeff Hoffman

Re-emerged as Toronto's closer with back-to-back dominant outings — 0.69 WHIP, 9 strikeouts in 4.1 innings, two saves. His overall ERA is unimpressive but the recent work is the real signal. The Blue Jays are competing; save opportunities will keep coming.

Recorded his 4th save Friday but it was his first since April 20. A full month without a save opportunity — with no injury explanation — is a red flag. Ryan Zeferjahn stepped into the closer role after Jordan Romano's DFA and could still challenge. Blue Jays' save situation is murkier than it looks.
