**Los Angeles, CA** – Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Teoscar Hernandez will miss Monday’s game against the Colorado Rockies due to a stomach illness, manager Dave Roberts announced. While Hernandez is out of the starting lineup, Roberts indicated there’s a possibility he could be available to pinch hit. Andy Pages will fill in for Hernandez in right field.
Hernandez, who is batting .281 with five home runs and 16 RBIs this season, has been a key contributor to the Dodgers’ offense. His absence comes as the team looks to rebound from a recent slump, having lost three of their last four series. The Dodgers are currently 11-6 and sit third in the NL West.
Despite their recent struggles, including a franchise-worst 16-0 home loss to the Chicago Cubs on Saturday, manager Roberts remains confident. “I do think it’s too early to panic,” Roberts stated. “We still got a good ball club. We’re going to be just fine. I still expect to win the division. I still expect to win the World Series.”
