Blue Jays @ Dodgers Aug 8-10 - Tonight Bassitt vs Snell @ 9pm

[Boogie!]

Overthinking, especially with Hoffman potentially being rusty which could impact his control- stick with Yariel.

I think it would have been better to bring him fresh to start an inning. It would have given him the room to work around a walk or two.

Then again who knows what Yariel would have done.

Guys Hoffman is the closer this is why we brought him in and this is why I really wish we added another closer at the deadline.

Honestly what is the statistical proof he should be used in that situation lol

[Randle McMurphy]

Letting Straw hit in the 7th inning over Davis Schneider so that he now comes up with the game on the line?

Yeah there’s something very wrong with that one

[dh_45]

I am so tired of Hoffman blowing leads he's useless in close games

[Ranger One]

Hahahaha...Hoffman is not THAT guy. I dont understand this front office's fascination with unpredictable wild closers. This guy is just Romano 2.0

One week hes the best closer in the world. Next week he cant find the zone to save his life. You need consistency and predictability in a closer, not this jekyl and hyde garbage we keep throwing out there.

That he’s been great for 2.5 months probably

[Brinbe]

[dh_45]

Hoffman is worse than Romero

[rarefind]

Unreal.

[Randle McMurphy]

[TOStateofMind]

I wanted Duran from Minnesota, and the Jays could have matched what the Phillies gave up ultimately.

The problem with the Rockies series (and the day off afterwards) is lots of guys went a number of days without pitching. And if you are blowing out say the White Sox, you don't mind bringing in guys just to get some work. But Colorado is not a place you like to do that.

The rest is nice, but perhaps it was two or three days to many for some. Little, Dominquez, Rodriguez, Hoffman all struggled with their control on as they came back into games with a little bit of rust.

Little and Dominquez back to being OK today, so hopefully it will settle itself by next week.

Hopefully Hoffman can get three outs in the 9th now. Hoping that is not too much to ask with Ernie giving us the lead.

27 strikeouts to 5 walks since June 1 so you’d be wrong there

[dh_45]

Everyone knew Hoffman would blow it

[dh_45]

Hoffman will surrender a bomb in the ninth
