Phillies' Cesar Hernandez: Having late-season power surge

Hernandez went 2-for-5 with a double and a solo homer against the White Sox on Wednesday.

Analysis:

Over his last five starts (spanning nine days), Hernandez has surprisingly doubled his homer total, hitting three of his six long balls in 2016. He's also compiled multiple hits in six of his last eight starts despite dealing with a minor foot injury last week. Hernandez doesn't exactly rack up fantasy stats -- his best counting category is steals, and he's been caught nine times to go with 13 successful swipes -- but he's hitting a shiny .296, which translates to significant relevance in deeper formats.
