Teoscar Hernández, after re-signing with the Los Angeles Dodgers, had a standout 2024 season, highlighted by winning the Home Run Derby. Despite initially considering defending his title in 2025, he has prioritized his health and announced he will not participate due to residual fatigue and a previous groin injury. Hernández spent time on the injured list earlier in the season but recovered quickly. As the event approaches, only a couple of participants have been confirmed, echoing a similar choice made by other players.
I was considering it at the beginning, but not right now. I think I'm not going to do it this year. Maybe next year.
Last year, when I finished the Home Run Derby, I was a little tired, tight. My body was a little tired, and with the injury that I had with my groin this year, I don't want to put anything at risk.
