And while certainly trying to prove his worth to potential suitors this coming winter, Hernandez has\u00a0put together one of the best seasons\u00a0of his career.<\/p>\n<div class=\"aspect-video w-full\">\n<div class=\"not-prose flex aspect-video w-full items-center justify-center\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The soon-to-be-32-year-old is just about to eclipse 100 RBIs on the year, which has seen Hernandez earn his second All-Star selection and help the Dodgers to yet another NL West title. Now, as the season is coming to a close and the playoffs approaching, Hernandez\u00a0reflected on his signing\u00a0and subsequent season in Dodger Blue.<\/p>\n<div id=\"AdThrive_Content_1_desktop\" class=\"adthrive-ad adthrive-sticky-container adthrive-content adthrive-content-1 adthrive-ad-cls\" data-google-query-id=\"\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/18190176,120193976\/AdThrive_Content_1\/5e90daf19f500876e949a3d9_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"google-ad-manager-fallback-container\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cThat was one of the best decisions I made in the offseason. Everybody was saying it was a bad deal because it was a one-year deal, but for me what is important is to get better and win. I&#8217;m glad that I&#8217;m here,\u201d Hernandez\u00a0said, via\u00a0The Athletic&#8217;s Fabian Ardaya.<\/p>\n<p>This season, Hernandez has recorded 33 home runs (a career-high), 99 RBIs (second-most of his career), 53 walks (career-high), and 84 runs (second-most) while sporting batting splits of .270 AVG \/ .338 OBP \/ .501 \/ .839 OPS. He trails only Shohei Ohtani on the Dodgers in terms of slugging percentage and total bases this year.<\/p>\n<div class=\"not-prose flex w-full flex-col gap-4 divide-y divide-solid divide-[#58585820] bg-[#FAFAFA] px-4 pt-5\">\n<div class=\"flex items-center justify-between\">\n<div class=\"flex flex-col\">\n<article class=\"article-body prose max-w-none pb-7 pt-5 prose-figure:max-w-full prose-ol:pl-10 prose-img:max-w-full prose-video:max-w-full md:prose-ol:pl-6 [&amp;_iframe]:m-auto [&amp;_iframe]:block [&amp;_iframe]:max-w-full\">Hernandez will likely sign a longer-term deal after the season, with the Dodgers or otherwise. The club has committed a ton of money to many other position players in the lineup \u2014 Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman, and Will Smith have signed contracts over the past four seasons worth a combined $1.37 billion \u2014 and have done similarly with pitchers, as seen with Yoshinobu Yamamoto&#8217;s $325 million and Tyler Glasnow&#8217;s $136.6 million deals this past offseason.<\/p>\n<p>Even if the Dodgers keep on spending in free agency, they may commit their resources elsewhere on the field and choose not to re-sign Hernandez, who will turn 32 years old in a few weeks, to a long-term extension. On the flip side, Hernandez may be able to earn an even more lucrative contract outside of L.A. as well after such a successful season with the Dodgers.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Teoscar Hernandez&#8217;s one-year deal with the Dodgers over the offseason has worked out perfectly for the outfielding slugger.
