If Ross Atkins had been the General Manager of the Toronto Blue Jays in 2015, Jeff Hoffman may be celebrating his tenth year as a member of the Blue Jays this season.

Hoffman was a talented first round draft pick (No. 9 overall) of the Blue Jays in 2014 and less than a year later he was shipped to Colorado at the deadline in a deal for Troy Tulowitzki and LaTroy Hawkins.
