Jeff Hoffman is a relief pitcher for the Toronto Blue Jays. In 2026 he struck out 102 batters over 66.0 innings across 71 appearances, going 6-8. His ERA of 3.55 is 15.1% lower than the league average of 4.18 — 8th of 16 on his team, and 172nd of 538 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 2.48 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 38.0% of swings (18.9% of every pitch he threw), walked 10.3% of the batters he faced and struck out 34.9%. His 1.7 dbWAR is built from that FIP rather than runs allowed, so it credits him for what he controls and not for the defence behind him.
