The Toronto Blue Jays are evaluating their closer role, questioning Jeff Hoffman's consistency despite his previous success.
Nathan Lukes was one of the most compelling stories from the Blue Jays' 2025 season. Drafted by the Cleveland Guardians in 2015, Lukes did not make his major league debut until 2023, when he played in 29 games for the Blue Jays. In 2024, he spent most of his time in the minors thanks to a pesky thumb injury, but he did make 22 MLB appearances.
