Roster %
Eligibility
Jeff Hoffman signed a one-year deal worth $2.2 million with the Phillies to avoid arbitration.
Fantasy Impact
It is the final year of club control for Hoffman as he'll be hitting free agency next offseason. He posted a 2.41 ERA in a strong year out of the bullpen for the Phillies last season.
Jeff Hoffman earned his second career save, pitching a perfect inning and earning his first save of the season in the Phillies' 3-2 victory over the Athletics on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact
The right-hander needed just six pitches to retire the side, striking out one batter and not allowing any hits or walks. Hoffman's season-long numbers remain strong with a 2.57 ERA over 13 appearances.
Jeff Hoffman has been placed on the 15-day injured list with right forearm stiffness on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
Hoffman managed to get through one inning of work on Saturday but will now need to sit out a few weeks with the injury. He's pitched relatively well this season with two wins, a 3.83 ERA and 1.41 WHIP but is essentially a non-factor in fantasy leagues.
Jeff Hoffman pitched 1 1/3 innings on Sunday, striking out two, and allowing two hits for zero earned runs in the Reds' 7-6 win over the Cardinals.
Fantasy Impact
Hoffman earned his first win of the season on Sunday as he now carries a record of 1-0 with an ERA of 3.00 and a WHIP of 1.27. The Reds pitcher has a decent strikeout rate as he has 32 over 30 IP. The 29 year old should not be rostered at the moment as he does not see many save opportunities or high leverage situations.
Jeff Hoffman (3-5) was saddled with the loss in his return from the IL Wednesday against the Mets. He allowed five runs on seven hits and three walks across four innings. He did not record a strikeout.
Fantasy Impact
Hoffman struggled in his first start since returning from a shoulder injury. He flashed some upside earlier in the season, but generally his fantasy upside is limited. He tends to be wild, and doesn't put up good strikeout numbers. In 45 innings this season, he has a 5.20 ERA, 1.67 WHIP, and a 39:30 K:BB. He'll start again early next week against the Cubs.
