Hernández is a hold — league average, stable, nothing pulling either way.

His expected wOBA is .321, essentially league average at .315, and he has enough plate appearances for that to be reliable. His actual wOBA tracks right with it at .314. The BABIP sits at .327, above league average, but BABIP needs around 800 balls in play to stabilize and he has 176 — that gap could narrow. His contact quality metrics are near league: exit velocity 89.3 mph, hard-hit rate 43.8%, barrel rate 9.1%. The xwOBA has been stepping up across the sample, but not beyond league average yet. There is no signal to buy here and no clear signal to sell. If you own him, keep him. If you do not, this is not where the edge is. Hold. 4 HR / 23 R / 24 RBI / 2 SB / .235 AVG — a streamable floor, but no edge to chase in standard leagues.
