Hernandez went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Saturday's extra-inning loss to Detroit.

EDGE Analysis

Hernandez gave Los Angeles an 8-4 lead with his two-run blast in the seventh inning, but the Tigers later rallied to secure the victory. Even with Max Muncy (oblique) and Mookie Betts (hand) on the IL, Hernandez has been a part-time player, starting four of Los Angeles' past seven contests. Saturday's long ball was his first of July, and he's gone 1-for-21 over 10 games this month.

Hernandez went 3-for-4 with a double and a run Sunday in a loss to San Francisco.

EDGE Analysis

Hernandez accounted for three of the Dodgers' eight hits in the contest as he recorded his first multi-hit performance since May 29. The utility man has remained an inconsistent part of the team's lineup despite injuries to Max Muncy (oblique) and Mookie Betts (wrist). Hernandez has started just three of the Dodgers' past seven games, and he carries a mediocre .208/.274/.312 slash line along with four homers and 12 RBI over 190 plate appearances on the campaign.

Hernandez isn't in the Dodgers' lineup versus the Rangers on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Hernandez is on the bench again with righty Michael Lorenzen on the mound for the Rangers. Recently acquired Cavan Biggio has the start at third and is batting eighth Thursday. Hernandez, who was serving as the primary third baseman in Max Muncy's absence, will now seem to just fill that role against lefties while Biggio will start against righties. For the season, Hernandez has a .724 OPS against lefties, but a .493 OPS against righties.

Hernandez is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Hernandez will sit for the second consecutive contest after starting the previous four games at third base. The 32-year-old has a .591 OPS in 155 plate appearances this season, and the acquisition of Cavan Biggio -- who is starting at the hot corner Wednesday -- could result in a reduced role.

Hernandez isn't in the Dodgers' lineup Tuesday versus the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Hernandez has been the primary third baseman for the Dodgers while Max Muncy nurses an oblique injury. In the three-game series versus the Yankees that ended Sunday, Hernandez went 3-for-10 with a home run and a double. With the 32-year-old on the bench Tuesday, Miguel Rojas is starting at third base and will bat ninth.

Hernandez went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, an additional run and a walk Saturday in an 11-3 win against the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

Hernandez produced just enough power to poke a solo shot to the right-field porch in the fifth inning, giving Los Angeles a 3-2 lead. The veteran utility man made his third straight start at third base, and he's notched an extra-base hit in each of those games, going 3-for-10 with two doubles and Saturday's homer along with three walks. Max Muncy (oblique) is on a slow ramp-up and figures to be out of action beyond next week, so Hernandez could be in for relatively consistent playing time in the short-term.

Hernandez is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pirates.

EDGE Analysis

Since Max Muncy made his last start May 15 before landing on the injured list with an oblique strain, Hernandez has served as the Dodgers' primary option at the hot corner. However, after starting at third base in the first seven games of Muncy's absence, Hernandez's hold on an everyday role may be slipping. He'll be on the bench for the second day in a row, with Chris Taylor getting the nod at the hot corner Wednesday after Miguel Rojas occupied the position Tuesday. Hernandez's move to the bench comes while he's supplied just five hits in 37 at-bats (.135 average) over his last 13 games.

Hernandez is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Reds.

EDGE Analysis

Hernandez will take a seat Friday after making six consecutive appearances. Instead, Miguel Rojas will man third base and bat ninth.

Hernandez went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Monday's 6-4 win over the Diamondbacks.

EDGE Analysis

Hernandez has homered twice in his last six games, though both have been solo shots as well as his only RBI in that span. The utility man is slashing just .216/.287/.320 with three homers, eight RBI, seven runs scored and no stolen bases over 108 plate appearances this season. Hernandez has started five straight games at third base since Max Muncy (oblique) exited the lineup, so it appears Hernandez has a path to steady playing time for now.

Hernandez went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Monday's 6-4 extra-inning win over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Hernandez opened May in an 0-for-11 slump, but he's hit safely in each of his last two games, including his seventh-inning blast as a pinch hitter Monday. The utility man is at a poor .220/.278/.305 slash line with two homers, seven RBI, six runs scored and one double through 90 plate appearances. Hernandez hasn't been strictly limited to a short-side platoon role, but that may change once Jason Heyward (back) is able to return from the injured list.
