Teoscar Hernández is a left fielder for the Los Angeles Dodgers. In 2026 he hit 11 home runs and knocked in 41 RBIs, notching 73 hits across 325 plate appearances in 83 games. His batting average was .249, 2.3% higher than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .314 clip and slugged .403, for an OPS of .717, level with the league mark of .719 — 10th of 14 on his team, and 195th of 417 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 89.2 mph off the bat, hit 41.5% of balls in play at 95 mph or better and made contact on 68.6% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 99 wRC+ puts his offence 1% below average. That comes to 0.6 dbWAR — -0.8 runs with the bat, -0.0 on the bases, -4.2 for the position he plays, against replacement level. It includes no fielding: defensive runs are proprietary and are not estimated here, so the figure credits playing a demanding position but not playing it well.
