Back in lineup at DH Hernandez (foot) will serve as the Blue Jays' designated hitter and cleanup batter in Sunday's game against the Yankees.
Impact Hernandez likely isn't fully comfortable running at 100 percent speed after exiting Saturday's 5-2 win when he fouled a ball off his left foot, so the Blue Jays will ease him back into the lineup in a non-defensive capacity. The Blue Jays will soon need to clear the DH spot for George Springer (knee) -- who is missing his third straight contest Sunday -- so Hernandez could resume duties in his usual spot in right field as soon as Tuesday in Boston.

Clubs 18th homer Hernandez went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 4-0 win over the Yankees.
Impact He took Jameson Taillon deep in the fourth inning, giving the Blue jays some insurance runs as Kevin Gausman and the bullpen combined for a shutout. Hernandez has cooled down a bit in August, batting only .254 (15-for-59) through 16 games, but nine of his hits have gone for extra bases including four of his 18 homers on the year.

Gets aboard thrice Hernandez went 1-for-2 with a double, two walks, a stolen base and a run scored in Saturday's 7-3 loss to the Twins.
Impact Hernandez extended his hitting streak to seven games, a span in which he's gone 8-for-26 (.308) with three home runs, six RBI and six runs scored. The outfielder is slashing .272/.326/.497 with 16 homers, six steals, 52 RBI and 44 runs scored across 341 plate appearances. He should continue to hit fourth or fifth in the order, which is likely to be a productive spot since Toronto ranks fifth in the majors with 517 runs scored as a team.

Homers again Thursday Hernandez went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Thursday's 9-3 win over the Twins.
Impact Hernandez has hit safely in five straight games, going 6-for-19 with three homers, six RBI and five runs scored in that span. The outfielder tied the game at 1-1 in the sixth inning with his blast Thursday. For the season, he's slashing .272/.322/.498 with 16 long balls, 52 RBI, 43 runs scored and five stolen bases through 332 plate appearances. While trade-deadline acquisition Whit Merrifield can play right field, it's expected he sees most of his time at second base, so Hernandez's near-everyday role should be safe.

Belts 15th homer Hernandez went 2-for-4 with a double and a home run and two RBI in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Rays.
Impact He was the only Toronto hitter to have any real success on the afternoon, as the rest of the Blue Jays managed only two hits combined. Hernandez is batting .295 since the beginning of July with seven of his 15 homers on the season, in addition to two steals, 17 runs and 20 RBI through 28 games.

Launches 14th homer Hernandez went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run in Saturday's 5-3 victory against Detroit.
Impact Hernandez slugged a 424-foot shot to center field in the sixth inning to give the Blue Jays a 5-3 lead that held up for the remainder of the contest. The long ball is his only hit over his past four games, during which Hernandez has gone 1-for-14. He hasn't quite matched his production from his breakout 2020 and 2021 campaigns, but Hernandez has registered a solid .270/.321/.485 slash line with 14 homers, 49 RBI and five steals over 315 plate appearances on the season.

Scores four times in rout Hernandez went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk, three additional runs and an additional RBI in Friday's 28-5 win over the Red Sox.
Impact Hernandez's four runs tied Santiago Espinal and Danny Jansen for the team lead on a night the Blue Jays established a new single-game franchise scoring record. The 29-year-old initially struggled to produce at the plate upon returning in early May from a stint on the injured list due to an oblique strain, but dating back to the beginning of June, he's slashing .318/.362/.591 with 11 home runs, four stolen bases, 34 RBI and 28 runs in 45 games.

Launches 12th homer Hernandez went 2-for-4 with a double, a three-run home run and a second run scored in Friday's 8-1 win over the Royals.
Impact His third-inning blast off Zack Greinke gave the Jays a 4-0 lead. Hernandez has hit safely in seven straight games and nine of the last 10 as he puts his early-season struggles well behind him, batting .368 (14-for-38) over that stretch with four of his 12 homers on the year.

Two homers in win Hernandez went 2-for-4 with two home runs and four RBI in Wednesday's win over the Phillies.
Impact Hernandez took Zack Wheeler deep for a two-run shot in the bottom of the fourth inning and then later another two-run homer off Bubby Rossman in the eighth. The two long balls have his season total up to 11 and he now owns a five game hit streak. Over those contests, Hernandez has gone 8-for-19 with two home runs, two doubles, seven RBI, three runs and two stolen bases. Hernandez is now batting .267 with 11 home runs, 39 RBI, 30 runs and five stolen bases over 247 at-bats in 65 games this year.

Swipes pair of bags Hernandez went 2-for-4 with an RBI, two stolen bases, a run scored and a walk in Friday's 5-2 extra-innings loss to the Mariners.
Impact Hernandez singled, stole second and scored in the second inning and added an RBI single in the fifth before working the front end of a double steal with Lourdes Gurriel. Speed hasn't been a huge part of Hernandez's game this year -- he hasn't attempted more than three steals in any month, and he's now 5-for-7 on the basepaths. The outfielder has added a decent .259/.312/.444 slash line with nine home runs, 33 RBI, 28 runs scored, 14 doubles and a triple through 61 contests. He's hitting .242 (8-for-33) so far in July.
