There’s no way they can keep him as closer after this abysmal outing, right?

He’s got absolutely nothing to get an out with

Can someone explain why this bum has been anointed the closer in almost all situations? His ability to drive the fanbase and his teammates insane doesn't qualify.

Pure Luck with horrible Rays swings saved Hoffman. Hoffman should not be a Closer come playoff time.

We've been saying this for weeks.

He wasn’t throwing 93-94 until this week, that’s outrageous

Good hitters will annihilate that
