Yadiel Hernandez - Page 5 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Drives in five runs Hernandez went 3-for-4 with two doubles, a walk, two runs and five RBI in Sunday's 11-5 victory against the Giants.

Impact Hernandez had perhaps the best game of his short career Sunday, reaching base four times and knocking a bases-loaded double in the eighth after San Francisco got the lead down to three. The 34-year-old has been thriving on the strong side of a platoon in left field as he's slashing .340/.368/.509 with six doubles and 12 RBI in 15 games.

Pops first homer of season Hernandez went 2-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in Sunday's loss to the Giants.

Impact He accounted for all the Nationals' scoring on the day with a single in the first inning and a two-run shot off Logan Webb in the third. The homer was Hernandez's first of the year, but he continues to find success in the strong side of a platoon, slashing .333/.361/.485 through 36 plate appearances with six RBI.

Remains in reserve role Hernandez is not in the lineup in Saturday's game against the Giants.

Impact Hernandez did not start Friday with a left-hander starting for the Giants, and he will remain on the bench Saturday with another southpaw -- Alex Wood -- toeing the rubber for the opponent. Hernandez and Lane Thomas will continue sharing the starts against right-handers, but as things stand, fantasy players can expect Thomas to get the nod whenever the Nationals face a lefty.

Sits against southpaw Hernandez will be on the bench Friday against the Giants, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Hernandez will hit the bench against lefty Sam Long. He's now sat against all five lefties the Nationals have faced this season but has been in the lineup against eight out of 11 righties. Lane Thomas will be the left fielder Friday.

Remains on bench for nightcap Hernandez will sit for the evening portion of Tuesday's twin bill against the Diamondbacks, Matt Weyrich of NBC Sports Washington reports.

Impact Early in the season, it looked as though Hernandez would start in left field against most righties while Lane Thomas handled the lefties. Hernandez has now sat against three straight righties, however, including both halves of Saturday's doubleheader, so it's possible he's slipping into a bench role. Thomas remains the starter for the nightcap.

Sitting first game of doubleheader Hernandez is not in the lineup for Game 1 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Diamondbacks, Matt Weyrich of NBC Sports Washington reports.

Impact Hernandez will take a seat for the third consecutive contest as the Nationals take on left-hander Madison Bumgarner in first game of Tuesday's doubleheader. Lane Thomas will start in left field and bat sixth.

APRIL 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Three hits in Thursday's loss Hernandez went 3-for-4 with two RBI in Thursday's loss to the Pirates.

Impact The 34-year-old has started four of the last five games, going 7-for-14 over that stretch with a double, a run scored and Thursday's two RBI. With neither Lane Thomas nor Victor Robles doing much at the plate to begin the year, Hernandez will likely continue to see regular playing time as long as he's making a contribution, but from a fantasy perspective he's a better option in points leagues -- Hernandez is unlikely to make an impact in any roto category outside of batting average.

Back on bench Wednesday Hernandez is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game in Atlanta, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Hernandez will be back on the bench after he went 4-for-10 with a double and a walk while starting in each of the Nationals' last three games in either left field or at designated hitter. The 34-year-old appears to be locked in as Washington's clear No. 4 outfielder ahead of Dee Strange-Gordon, but Hernandez is still expected to find himself on the bench more often than not while all of Lane Thomas, Victor Robles, Juan Soto and Nelson Cruz are available.

Wins roster spot Hernandez has secured a spot on the Opening Day roster, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Hernandez hit .273/.329/.413 as a 33-year-old rookie last season. He doesn't appear to have a path to a starting role but should fill in occasionally in the outfield corners.

Sitting out finale Hernandez (mouth) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Hernandez will remain on the bench for the third consecutive game after he recently underwent a dental procedure, but considering he made pinch-hit appearances both of the past two days, he should head into the offseason fully healthy. Unless he's used again off the bench Sunday, Hernandez will wrap up his rookie campaign with a .273/.329/.413 slash line with nine home runs and three stolen bases across 289 plate appearances.

Undergoes dental procedure Hernandez's removal from Friday's lineup against the Red Sox was due to a dental procedure, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

Impact It's not yet clear whether Hernandez's procedure will force him to miss any additional time. However, Andrew Stevenson started in his place Friday and will likely take over in left field if the 33-year-old is held out for either of the final two games of the regular season.

OCTOBER 1, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Late scratch Friday Hernandez was scratched from Friday's lineup versus the Red Sox for undisclosed reasons.

Impact Hernandez was penciled in to start in left field but was a late removal from the lineup with no explanation from the team. It's unclear if this is an injury situation or simply a lineup change. Andrew Stevenson will start in left field in his place Friday.

Reaches base three times in loss Hernandez went 1-for-2 with two walks and a run Tuesday in the Nationals' 3-1 loss to the Rockies.

Impact Hernandez was relegated to a bench role in his return from the paternity list Saturday, but he's since started over Andrew Stevenson in each of the past three contests, going a collective 3-for-9 with two walks and two runs. He'll be in the lineup again Wednesday for the series finale in Colorado, manning left field and batting fifth.

Not in starting nine Hernandez will not start Saturday's game against the Reds.
