Re-ups with Dodgers The Dodgers re-signed Hernandez (elbow) to a one-year contract Thursday, Hernandez announced in an Instagram post.

Impact It had been considered a formality that Hernandez would return to the Dodgers. He is recovering from left elbow surgery and is expected to begin the season on the 60-day injured list, per Noah Camras of DodgersNation.com. Once healthy, Hernandez will operate in a utility role, seeing much of his action versus left-handed pitching. The 34-year-old has hit just .219/.270/.370 over the last two regular seasons, but he's a career .272/.339/.486 hitter in the postseason.

The utility man played through the injury for the second half of the regular season and playoffs, electing to delay a procedure until the offseason. Hernandez is currently a free agent and could wait until his rehab is farther along before signing with a new team.

Hernandez posted a .975 OPS with two home runs over his final eight regular-season contests and is a career .278/.353/.522 with 15 homers in 86 playoff games.

Swats homer Tuesday Hernandez went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run and an additional RBI in Tuesday's 9-6 loss to the Phillies.

Impact Hernandez continues to fill a versatile role for the Dodgers, but he hasn't hit well enough to stay in the lineup regularly since returning from an elbow injury. He's gone just 7-for-39 (.179) over 14 games since his return Aug. 26. The utility player has a .192/.248/.346 slash line with nine homers, 30 RBI, 26 runs scored and five doubles across 86 contests this season.

Sitting after four straight starts Hernandez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.

Impact Hernandez will head to the bench Sunday after he had started in each of the last four games -- three at third base, one at first base -- while going 4-for-14 with three RBI and two runs. The Dodgers should be able to find regular room for Hernandez in the lineup against left-handed pitching during the final month of the season, but the right-handed-hitting utility player could find playing time versus righties more difficult to come by in September. Los Angeles is expected to get Hyeseong Kim (shoulder) back from the injured list ahead of Tuesday's game in Pittsburgh, and Tommy Edman (ankle) looks to be on the cusp of a rehab assignment and will soon give the Dodgers another utility option.
