""I finally feel like myself," Hernández said. "Every coordination that I work on in the cage, everything that I try to do in the cage before the game, I've been doing it these past five days. So it's definitely getting closer to where I was before I got hurt at the beginning of the season."
""It's getting better at the right time, right before the season ends. We're still fighting, trying to win some games to get closer to the second spot [in the overall NL standings]. Just keep working and let everything go on the field.""
"With a slash line of .304/.333/.543 and an OPS of .877 this month, Hernández is certainly looking more like himself as well."
Teoscar Hernández entered September after an August stretch in which he hit .211 across 24 games. Hernández has improved markedly this month, producing a .304/.333/.543 slash line and a .877 OPS through 12 games. On the season he sits at a .251 average with a .746 OPS and 24 home runs, down from last year. Hernández has seen a slight decline in batting average against fastballs but has increased his fastball home run total, hitting 13 homers off heaters this season. Defensive metrics remain poor, leaving offensive output as the primary contributor to value.
