""Teo certainly fits," Roberts told reporters. "He's helped us win two championships. He's one of my favorites. Could he move to left, potentially. But I will say, from my eye test, the last game in Colorado, the last time we were in Denver, from that point on his right field defense was at least average so for me that was sufficient with the bat potential.""
"Hernandez has proven that his offensive production is worth his struggles as a defender. In two postseasons with the Dodgers, he's hit .254 with 8 home runs and 25 RBI. In the regular season, Hernandez has hit 25 or more home runs in each of the past six seasons, excluding the shortened 2020 season. However, defensively, Hernandez has struggled, ranking 33 of 36 eligible right fielders in outs above average last season."
Teoscar Hernandez remains with the Dodgers and is considered a clubhouse favorite and capable outfielder. He has contributed to two championships and could potentially shift to left field. Observations indicate his right-field defense improved after the last Colorado game, making his bat production more valuable. Offensively, Hernandez hit .254 with eight postseason home runs and 25 RBI across two postseasons and has recorded 25+ regular-season homers in six full seasons (excluding 2020). Defensively, he ranked near the bottom among eligible right fielders in outs above average last season. The roster is viewed as strong, with potential upgrade opportunities.
