Hernandez returned to the starting lineup Monday, going 1-for-3 with a solo home run in a loss to the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Gregor Blanco drew the start in center Sunday, but Hernandez has started three of the four games since Steven Duggar (shoulder) was placed on the disabled list. The 30-year-old should continue to see the lion's share of starts in center while looking to build on his career year (.246/.297/.411 with 14 homers).

Hernandez is out of the lineup Sunday against the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
Hernandez had started the previous three games in center field, going 2-for-11 in those contests. While he'll cede those duties to Gregor Blanco in the series finale, Hernandez looks set to work in an everyday role throughout September with rookie Steven Duggar (shoulder) ruled out for the season.

Hernandez figures to take over in center after Steven Duggar (shoulder) was placed on the disabled list Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Duggar's shoulder injury will hold the center fielder out for at least a few weeks, and potentially rest of the regular season, opening up playing time for Hernandez in center. The 30-year-old had only started one of the Giants' last seven contests due to a second-half slump. The club also called up Gregor Blanco to provide depth in center, but Hernandez's .249/.299/.411 slash line and career-high 13 homers through 117 games should make him the primary option down the stretch.
