Hernandez clearly loved his time in Los Angeles and said on multiple occasions that he wanted to spend the future there. Furthermore, the Dodgers would love to keep his bat in the lineup, as he put together an All-Star season en route to the team winning the World Series. And he&#8217;ll also be far less expensive than Juan Soto, who the Dodgers kicked the tires on.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_la9ep1upl\">The slugger had a great year in Los Angeles, helping further lengthen the team&#8217;s lineup. He hit 33 homers and brought in 99 runs. Hernandez played last year on a one-year deal that he had signed in free agency, but this deal will certainly be more lucrative. He previously spent six years with the Toronto Blue Jays, helping them get to the playoffs in 2020 and 2022. He made the All-Star Game with Toronto in 2021 and was traded to Seattle before the 2023 season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagStyle_16dbupz-o_O-style_mxvz7o-o_O-style_12bse5w-o_O-style_6s3kpz\" data-mm-id=\"_kz36n0yww\">He&#8217;s also played for the Houston Astros in addition to the Mariners,\u00a0Dodgers\u00a0and\u00a0Jays.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After helping Los Angeles win the World Series in 2024, Hernandez is reportedly likely headed back to Los Angeles.
