Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Teoscar Hernandez (ankle) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's game against the Chicago Cubs. This is good news after Hernandez missed four games due to an ankle issue. It was uncertain if he was truly day-to-day or going to be placed on the injured list. Hernandez appears good to go and he'll cover left field and bat cleanup against Cubs left-hander Jordan Wicks. Hernandez is crushing lefties to the tune of a .299 batting average with 10 home runs and 26 RBI this season. Fantasy managers should make sure to get him back in their lineups ahead of Wednesday's contest.
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Teoscar Hernandez (ankle) remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Chicago Cubs. This marks the fourth game in a row that Hernandez has missed after getting hit by a pitch on the ankle last Friday. The Dodgers haven't placed Hernandez on the injured list yet, but that news could be coming. For now, fantasy managers can consider Hernandez as day-to-day, but they should get a backup plan prepared. Andy Pages will cover left field and bat fifth against left-hander Shota Imanaga. The 23-year-old has been decent with a .243 batting average with 10 home runs and 39 RBI in 104 games this season. However, Pages isn't an ideal fantasy option against a tough southpaw in Imanaga.
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Teoscar Hernandez (ankle) remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the Chicago Cubs. Hernandez has been sidelined since exiting early during Friday's contest due to an ankle injury. The X-rays came back negative, so the team is calling it a left ankle contusion. The hope is that Hernandez can return within the next day or two. In the meantime, Chris Taylor will play left field and bat ninth against right-hander Kyle Hendricks on Monday. Taylor has been struggling this season and is hitting under .200 currently, so there should be better streaming options available.UPDATE: Manager Dave Roberts said the team is hopeful of having Hernandez back in the lineup on Tuesday, but they'll see how he feels then.
