4/26/25 | Phillies Boss Explains Controversial Decision to Move On From All-Star Reliever. The Philadelphia Phillies have struggled to create any sort of consistent momentum this season with a record of .500 headed into the weekend and coming off five consecutive losses. With a starting rotation which has of course been one of the best in baseball and a lineup that has underachieved but not been horrible, there is one main issue plauging Philadelphia more than anything else. The bullpen has been an absolute mess after the Phillies opted to replace two of their All-Star free agents with both external and internal options which have not panned out to this point. In terms of letting people walk, there is none more egregious looking right now than 2024 All-Star right-hander Jeff Hoffman. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/phillies/news/phillies-boss... |

4/25/25 | Philadelphia Phillies Reliever 'Too Valuable To Close' Blowing Away Opponents. One of the issues that the Philadelphia Phillies have run into in the early going of the 2025 MLB regular season is with their bullpen. All-Star Jeff Hoffman and deadline acquisition Carlos Estevez both departed in free agency, signing with the Toronto Blue Jays and Kansas City Royals, respectively. The only addition made to the backend of the bullpen was former Blue Jays closer Jordan Romano, who was non-tendered earlier in the winter. Orion Kerkering was elevated to the top right-handed option for Rob Thomson but has yet to replicate the production he showed in 2024. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/phillies/news/philadelphia-... |

4/22/25 | Phillies, 'paranoid,' launch investigation after latest bullpen implosion. The Philadelphia Phillies are off to a winning start after a relatively quiet offseason. Despite winning just a single playoff game in 2024, the Phillies have returned with essentially the same roster.

Meanwhile, the Phillies bullpen owns the second-highest ERA in all of baseball at 5.80. Source: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/mlb/philadelphia-p... |
4/13/25 | Blue Jays rally for extra-inning win over Orioles. Jeff Hoffman blanked the Baltimore Orioles in the ninth and 10th innings to help the visiting Toronto Blue Jays finish off their 7-6 comeback victory Sunday and earn a split of the rain-shortened two-game series. Hoffman struck out back-to-back batters with the tying run on third base in the 10th inning to end the game. It marked the second time in five days that Hoffman (2-0) threw a scoreless ninth and 10th to earn a win. In the top of the 10th, Myles Straw beat out a slow roller to third off Matt Bowman (0-1) with runners on the corners and one out to give the Blue Jays a 7-6 lead.

4/09/25 | Phillies blockbuster trade idea lands 58-save fireballer to replace Jordan Romano. The Philadelphia Phillies won't be shy about solving their flaws at the 2025 trade deadline. In a crucial season for the franchise, the Phillies are off to a hot start at 7-3. If anything is going to hold the Phillies back, the bullpen is a fairly safe bet. After the free agency departures of Jeff Hoffman and Carlos Estévez, both American League closers now, the Phillies signed two-time All-Star Jordan Romano, who is off to a bad start after an injury-plagued 2024 season.

4/08/25 | Phillies predicted to cut ties with $8.5 million pickup pretty quickly. The Philadelphia Phillies' bullpen was a major question mark for the team this past offseason. With guys like Jeff Hoffman and Carlos Estévez leaving the organization, the Phillies clearly needed to add some more talent into the mix. One way they did so was taking a chance on former Toronto Blue Jays two-time All-Star Jordan Romano on a one-year, $8.5 million deal. The season hasn't started as planned for Romano as he has a 15.75 ERA through five appearances. Source: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/mlb/philadelphia-p... |
4/07/25 | Phillies trade idea would land 38-save All-Star as Jordan Romano backup plan. If Philadelphia Phillies fans had one worry about their team's roster heading into the 2025 season, it was the bullpen. The Phillies lost reliable relievers Jeff Hoffman and Carlos Estévez in free agency, bringing in Jordan Romano, a two-time American League All-Star who was non-tendered by the Toronto Blue Jays, to take over the vacant closer role. Romano had a brutal season in 2024 while barely pitching due to injury, but the Phillies were hoping he could bounce back to his electric 2022-2023 form.

Among them is a name familiar to many in the Capital Region—Latham native Jeff Hoffman.'

3/10/25 | Phillies All-Star makes concerning Opening Day announcement after injury. The Philadelphia Phillies are hoping for better results with virtually the same roster as last season, but it now appears they could be without a critical piece to start the campaign.

Strahm was a critical presence in the Phillies' closer-by-committee bullpen in 2024, maintaining a 1.87 ERA across 62.2 innings. Source: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/mlb/philadelphia-p... |

Speaking recently on the Foul Territory TV program, new Toronto Blue Jays reliever Jeff Hoffman had a simple message about pitching against the Baltimore Orioles this season.

The Philadelphia Phillies once again have World Series aspirations in 2025, and seeds for a title run will have to be planted this spring. Philadelphia boasts has a star-studded lineup and one of baseball's top starting rotations, as has been the case for three years running. Reporting live from spring training down in Florida, Fastball On SI staff writer Sam Connon broke down the three biggest questions hanging over the Rays midway through camp.

With spring training underway for the Philadelphia Phillies, the team will be ready to compete for a National League pennant in 2025. After a disappointing end to the campaign in 2024, the Phillies had a fairly quiet but strong offseason.

Coming into the postseason last year, the unit was looking strong led by Jeff Hoffman and Carlos Estevez. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/phillies/news/philadelphia-... |
2/10/25 | Could Another Star Pitching Prospect Debut for Philadelphia Phillies This Year?. The Philadelphia Phillies are gearing up for another season where they are expected to compete for a World Series title based on the strength of their roster. Despite fizzling out in the playoffs the past two years in frustrating fashion, there's no doubt the star power already in place is enough for them to beat every team in Major League Baseball, regardless if there are now doubts present or not. The Phillies let both Jeff Hoffman and Carlos Estevez walk in free agency, opting to bring in Jordan Romano and Joe Ross on short-term deals. Orion Kerkering will see an increased role during high-leverage situations, and they're hoping Jose Alvarado can get back to being a shutdown reliever.

2/05/25 | Blue Jays 'likely' to lose bidding war for projected $75 million slugger to Mets. It's been a strong offseason for the Toronto Blue Jays, but the jury is still out on whether or not they can be playoff contenders. After a disastrous last-place finish in 2024, the Blue Jays loaded up on free agents: reliever Jeff Hoffman, outfielder Anthony Santander, and starting pitcher Max Scherzer. Toronto was in the running for superstars Juan Soto, Corbin Burnes, and Roki Sasaki. Source: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/mlb/toronto-blue-j... |
2/04/25 | Most of the cast returns as Phillies try to walk roster tightrope in '25. The 2025 season for the Phillies is somewhat of a bridge year — they are still contenders with one of the best rosters in baseball, but it was a mostly quiet offseason because of their financial situation and the players they hope to incorporate in the near future. Jeff Hoffman, Carlos Estevez and Austin Hays became free agents but that was essentially it. Source: https://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/sports/mlb/ph... |
1/30/25 | Phillies Lose Another Relief Pitcher in Free Agency. The 32 year old is coming off the best season of his pro career, tallying a 2.45 ERA with the Angels and Phillies in 2024.

Jeff Hoffman signed a 3-year, $33M deal with the Toronto Blue Jays a few weeks back after failing a physical with the Orioles and Braves due to a right shoulder issue.

1/25/25 | Philadelphia Phillies Young Star Not Feeling Pressure About Increased Role. It became clear the Philadelphia Phillies weren't going to bring back Jeff Hoffman or Carlos Estevez. With both players hitting the open market after two straight seasons of delivering elite results out of the bullpen, the front office knew it would be tough to retain both of them based on the amount of money they were projected to receive. Hoffman was the first to find a new home, signing a multi-year contract with the Toronto Blue Jays that officially ended his tenure with the team that resurrected his career. Estevez is still on the open market, and even though there was some thought the Phillies might bring him back since they don't have a clearcut closer on their roster right now, it's looking more and more likely he'll also depart with his market beginning to heat up.

1/24/25 | Red Sox Could Get Creative With This All-Star Pitching Idea. The Boston Red Sox remain in need of one more quality arm to add to their bullpen entering the 2025 season. The market got raided recently with names such as Jeff Hoffman and Tanner Scott coming off the market in January. What if the best way forward for an aging starter and former Cy Young contender is to do so as a reliever or even as a closer? Source: https://nesn.com/2025/01/red-sox-could-get-creativ... |
