Jeff Hoffman vows he’s healthy, set to pitch for Blue Jays

by | Jan 16, 2025

Jeff Hoffman knows how to pitch. He knows his body and is ready to show off both.

Hoffman signed last week with the Toronto Blue Jays. Reports came out before the signing that he failed physicals for the Braves and Orioles, negating possible deals with those teams.

“All the flags, the physical stuff was as big a surprise to me as anybody,” Hoffman said, according to the Toronto Sun. “You can check my track record over the last few years — I’ve been as healthy as anybody. It’s a non-issue for me. The Blue Jays see me for what I am and I’d rather be in a place like that anyways.”
