One pitch. Ridiculous.
Like, if you were going to script a closer controversy, this is exactly how it would go.
Meanwhile, #Bluejays have won three straight after going 7-13.
Last year, #Jays went 7-13 in Apr/May and came out of it with four straight wins on the way to the division title.
Hoffman couldn’t look John Schneider in the eye as he was taken out of the game.
Chance after chance. And he looked so good yesterday. Now Louis Varland with the bases loaded, one out, #Bluejays up by two.
Jeff Hoffman gave up 2 hits, hit two guys, left with the bases loaded.
Louis Varland threw one pitch and got a double play.
Time to have faith in a different guy, John.
#BlueJays
Oh, jesus Hoffman, can you not?!!!! #BlueJays
HOFFFFFFFMMMMAAAAANNNN - what r u doing???? #bluejays
Is Hoffman involved in gambling? I said this last year too. I think he intentionally throws like garbage. When other pitchers ruin a game they care. He doesn't. #BLUEJAYS
Varland's coming in now. There's your new closer folks!!
Allowing one run was the best thing that could happen, Hoffmann can be replaced now. #bluejays
2026 #BlueJays recap: WWWLWLLLLLLWWLLWLLLLWWW
Does this officially move Louis Varland into the Blue Jays closer spot?
Let's hope so.
#BlueJays
Why was Hoffman even in? Shoulda been Varland all along. Fuck's sake...
Close one! Still, at least we've got this series. About time! #bluejays
Amazing. Varland. #BlueJays
Call stands. Jays win & suddenly the Jays have won 3 in a row and win a series for the first time this month #bluejays ok i'm off to bed.
Hear that whispered rustling on the wind ?
That be the sound of leaves falling from John Schneider’s trust tree as Mr. Hoffman quietly slides down and moves off into the night.
The sound of branches breaking?
Mr. Varland climbing to to the top.
#Bluejays
#bluejays not good yet again Hoffman
Looks like Hoffman doing Hoffman things. #Bluejays
I'll be pissed if this goes to extra innings. It's already 1am here. 😬
#BlueJays
I'm coining a nickname for Louie Varland: "Louie Legend."
#BlueJays
After a 4-2 win today in Los Angeles, the #BlueJays are now 10-13.
Their playoff odds have improved to 40.57% (+3.1949%).

Jeff Hoffman should not come back to Toronto without a disguise…. #BlueJays
