4 years agoCincinnati Reds right-hander Jeff Hoffman looked good in a Cactus League outing against the Colorado Rockies on Monday. Hoffman tossed three scoreless innings, striking out four and scattering three hits in the appearance against his former team. Hoffman is trying to beat out Michael Lorenzen, Tejay Antone, and Jose De Leon for the fifth spot in the starting rotation this spring, but Lorenzen is believed to have the inside track to winning the job. Hoffman is likely to open the season as a reliever for Cincinnati.--Matt T - RotoBaller
