Analysis:

The team has yet to confirm, but it sounds like Hernandez will start in place of Josh Beckett (hip) against Kyle Lohse and the Brewers on Friday. Hernandez was traded to the Dodgers on Thursday in exchange for two players to be named later or cash considerations, after posting a 3.87 ERA and 1.35 WHIP in 23 appearances (20 starts) with the Phillies.
