Hoffmann DFAed for Martinez Return | MLB News

Hoffmann, 26, acquired from the Royals last year, struggled in the majors with a high ERA and middling stats, despite showing promise as a reliever in Triple-A last season.

With the trade deadline past and no clear path forward, Hoffmann is likely headed to waivers — a harsh but common reality in baseball.
