The Los Angeles Dodgers left veteran left fielder Teoscar Hernández out of the starting lineup for Tuesday’s series opener against the Atlanta Braves, a move manager Dave Roberts described as a rest day rather than a benching. The decision follows a severe slump where Hernández hit .172 with no home runs over his last 18 games. Roberts cited mechanical issues and swing-and-miss frustration, noting that hitting coaches identified adjustments that could help. While Hernández is expected to return for the remainder of the road trip, his recent performance has raised questions about his role, especially against right-handed pitching, though the club still values his postseason track record.

With spring training looming, five players—Oneil Cruz, Spencer Strider, Mike Trout, Jake Burger and Teoscar Hernandez—are highlighted as bounce-back candidates for 2026.

Spring training is just weeks away.
Despite trade rumors sparked by Kyle Tucker’s joining the Dodgers, Teoscar Hernandez is likely to remain with Los Angeles for Opening Day, with the plan to move him to left field as Tucker takes right; outfield competition would feature Andy Pages and Tommy Edman in center with Alex Call in reserve, and Edman potentially moving to second base, as the Dodgers balance depth, contract deferrals, and a relatively thin market for Hernandez.
