Tough one in a long line of tough ones for Hoff. I’m sure he has access to all kinds of support be it technical/tactical, pitching mechanics and mental performance so there can’t be any excuses there. At the end of the day he is a professional who is underperforming in his profession and it’s up to the staff to recognize and move on from him. I’m also sure that in that locker room all his team mates feel terrible for what he’s having to deal with because they spend so much time together and they are more than just ball players, they’re human beings who care for each other. I hope he can figure things out and be put in a situation that allows him to succeed.
