Blue Jays' Hoffman Struggles in Ninth

The Toronto Blue Jays pitching staff is currently dealing with several injuries, leaving closer Jeff Hoffman to shoulder the ninth-inning responsibilities. Despite his three-year, $33 million contract, Hoffman has struggled this season with a 4.32 ERA and only two saves in five chances. His performance has contributed to the teams overall staff ERA of 4.79, ranking 26th in the majors. With starters posting a 5.08 ERA and the bullpen at 4.54, the team is eagerly awaiting the return of high-leverage reliever Yimi Garcia to help alleviate the pressure.
