Teoscar Hernandez Re-Enters Starting Lineup Wednesday
1 year agoSeattle Mariners outfielder Teoscar Hernandez is back in the starting lineup Wednesday afternoon to take on Boston Red Sox right-hander Kutter Crawford. Hernandez was held out of the starting lineup for Tuesday night's contest due to the outfielder drawing significant interest prior to the MLB trade deadline but the club ended up hanging on to their powerful right-handed bat. However, Hernandez hasn't been at his best this season, hitting .238 with 16 homers, five stolen bases, and a .694 OPS across 106 appearances on the season. The outfielder has also seen his walk rate dip to 5.6% while his strikeout rate has risen to a hefty 32.1% clip. The 30-year-old is scheduled to hit free agency at season's end.
