Fantasy Analysis
Hernandez has shuffled in and out of the batting order every game this month as he's produced just a .200 batting average in May. He has also recorded just one hit over his past six games played and could continue to lose playing time to prospect Wilin Rosario. Consider Hernandez a low-end Fantasy option in NL-only formats at this point. (Updated 05/21/2012).

Ramon Hernandez may just be keeping the seat warm for catcher-of-the-future Wilin Rosario, but the handing of the torch could be slow and gradual, as the Rockies signed the 35-year-old veteran to a two-year deal this offseason. In 2011, Hernandez showed he has plenty left in the tank, as he hit .282 with 12 home runs in 298 at-bats. His ability to hit for power and average will only be enhanced by playing his home games at Coors Field. And he could see more playing time as well, as the Rockies do not have an established backup in place, like the Reds did with Ryan Hanigan. Should the Rockies be aggressive in their advancement of Rosario, Hernandez could still be stuck in a time-sharing arrangement, so he remains a risky pick in standard mixed leagues. However, should he get an uptick in playing time, Hernandez would likely become a popular waiver wire target in those formats this season. (Updated 1/18/12)
