A sixth-round draft pick by the Astros in 2009, "Kiké" Hernández made his big league debut on July 1, 2014. His exciting all-out brand of play, along with his ability to play multiple defensive positions, quickly made Hernández a favorite among Astros fans. But his time in Houston was short-lived. Hernández was traded to Miami less than a month into his big league career. After a short stay with the Marlins, Hernández has turned into a super-utility player with the Dodgers. Through 2019, he has compiled a .241 career average with 66 homers in six big league seasons. |
