ELIESER HERNÁNDEZ NEWS

Solid in no-decision Hernandez didn't factor into the decision in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Mets, giving up two runs on six hits over five innings. He struck out six without walking a batter.

Impact The right-hander exited the game after an efficient 65 pitches (48 strikes), but he was on the hook for his fourth loss until the Marlins rallied for three runs in the eighth inning. Hernandez will wrap up an injury-truncated season with a 4.18 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 53:14 K:BB through 51.2 innings, and barring some radical changes to Miami's roster, Hernandez should head into spring training next year as a favorite for a rotation spot.

Walks five in loss Hernandez (1-2) allowed two unearned runs on four hits and five walks over 5.2 innings Friday, striking out three and taking a loss against Pittsburgh.

Hernandez had walked just five batters through 19.1 innings in his previous four starts. He's lined up to face the Nationals at home next week.

Struggles in Saturday's start Hernandez completed 4.2 innings against Atlanta on Saturday, allowing three runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out four. He did not factor in the decision.

Impact Miami's offense provided Hernandez a three-run lead after two innings, and the right-hander kept Atlanta off the scoreboard through four frames. However, things fell apart for Hernandez in the fifth frame, as he surrendered three straight two-out hits that plated a trio of runs and led to his removal. While he didn't give up any long balls for the first time in seven starts this season, the seven hits Hernandez surrendered tied his season-worst mark. The 26-year-old is tentatively scheduled to make his next start at home versus Pittsburgh on Friday.

Fans six in no-decision Hernandez didn't factor into the decision Sunday against Philadelphia after allowing three runs on three hits and a walk across five innings, striking out six.

Impact Hernandez had issues with the long ball once again after allowing two homers, and he has given up at least one bomb in each of his six appearances this season and posting a career-worst 2.5 HR/9 thus far. He has also given up multiple runs in each of his last three outings and has yet to record a quality start, but he has limited the damage most of the time and still owns a 3.90 ERA through 32.1 innings this year. He also sports a strong 9.2 K/9, making it the third year in a row in which he has posted a 9.0 K/9 or higher.
