The Phillies optioned Hoffman to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday.

The right-hander was called up by the Phillies on Thursday and will head back to Triple-A after firing 1.1 scoreless frames in his lone appearance. That strong showing combined with Hoffman's 2.35 ERA across seven outings for Lehigh Valley this season -- assuming he maintains that form -- should help him to get another look in the majors later this year.
