Hernandez went hitless in three at-bats Sunday against the Braves.

Analysis:

The outfielder offers stellar defensive skills but little in the way of offense. Hernandez got the start in part because Pittsburgh rested Gregory Polanco with a right-hander on the mound. The Bucs are expected to face just one righty during the upcoming week, likely limiting Hernandez to pinch-running and defensive replacement opportunities.
