Blue Jays pitcher Jeff Hoffman is in big trouble with how he has been playing
The Blue Jays brought in Hoffman yesterday after gaining the lead late in the game which did not last lost as Hoffman blew his 4th save of the season and ultimately costing Toronto the game.

Fans have completely lost faith in Hoffman as he was brought in to be their main closer and replace Jordan Romano but has failed to do that over the last two months which is forcing the team to look at other options.
Blue Jays are going to need to grab some high leverage bullpen arms at the deadline
Still like Hoffman longterm, but this isn't a good look
The Blue Jays have Yimi Garcia and Ryan Burr set to return soon which means Hoffman will likely get even less playing time and if he does not turn this brutal season around, he mind find himself barely pitching.
Toronto needs reliable arms in their bullpen and even though they brought Hoffman in for exactly that, he clearly is not delivering which is tough for the Blue Jays who are paying him $11 million per year.
Hopefully he can turn this around but it certainly does not look good as he might force the Blue Jays to move on from him if he cannot figure this problem out.
