Are you Miguel Rojas? 

I wish that dude is getting the king treatment right now.

No way they are keeping the guy in the closers role that just cost them a World Series.  

Yeah I think they will get someone who can realistically be the closer next season, either aiming super high (Diaz, Williams, Suarez) or Iglesias/Helsley/etc types.

From May 1 to the end of the regular season, Hoffman had a -1.1 WAR with a 5.95 FIP, 4.44 BB/9, and the 2nd worst HR/FB rate in baseball for relievers (behind known stud Ryan Rolison) in 53 IP. 

Rojas has a career 79 wRC+ against RHP, and in 2025 it was 67 with 1 HR.

I don't disagree that Hoff might be better in 2026, but I don't think the Jays use him in the closer spot again. Maybe that's me wishing more than anything else. The next time I see that man come into a game in the 9th inning wearing a Jays uniform the score better be 15-1. 

Yeah at that price point I’d rather let him go elsewhere. I’m assuming the elevated dollars is due to only being a one year deal.

good lol

How much is Diaz gonna get 

Somewhere around 4/80

Makes sense to kick the tires but at that price point you pass. This organization aims higher.
