5 years agoPhiladelphia Phillies second baseman Cesar Hernandez went 2-for-3 with two RBI and three runs scored vs Milwaukee Monday night. Hernandez has been red-hot lately, his .429 average in the Month of May is third in the Majors and his 1.186 OPS is seventh. Hernandez has always been an on-base machine but this season he's brought power to his game. His 33.9 percent hard-hit rate is a career high and his 13.5 percent strikeout rate is a career low. Hernandez has been usable in the past but during this hot streak he needs to be started in fantasy leagues and the underlying numbers suggest that even when he cools off from this torrid pace, he should still be a usable option at one of the weakest positions in fantasy. He has good matchups the rest of this week with all home games vs the Brewers and Rockies.--Mike Schwarzenbach - RotoBaller
