Summary
Kiké Hernández is back with the Dodgers, ready to ignite the clubhouse after a brutal elbow injury sidelined him for 53 games. Playing through agony last season—including a World Series win—only worsened the damage, which turned out to be one of the worst elbow injuries a surgeon has ever seen. His family and agent pushed him toward surgery, and now, with a $4.5M one-year deal, he’s returning to chase another title. He’s also a postseason legend, holding the Dodgers’ record for appearances and representing Puerto Rican and Latino baseball at its highest level. His recovery even gave him time to bond with his newborn kids, and now, with Santiago Espinal DFA’d, Hernández is back to help the Dodgers chase glory once more.
