    He's starting in center field and batting sixth in Game 1. His position may change from game to game, but Hernandez should remain in the Dodgers' lineup for each of the Fall Classic games. He's slashing .303/.378/.485 with two homers this postseason and has slugged 15 home runs over 81 career playoff contests.

  • Padres' Donovan Solano: Sitting out Game 4

    Solano isn't in the Padres' lineup Wednesday for Game 4 of the NLDS against the Dodgers.

  • Padres' Donovan Solano: Out of Game 3 lineup

    Solano is absent from the lineup Tuesday in Game 3 of the NLDS against the Dodgers.

    The Padres used Luis Arraez at first base and David Peralta in the designated-hitter slot in Game 2 and will go with that setup again after Peralta went deep in the contest. Solano did get two plate appearances off the bench in Game 2 and is a good bet to enter mid-game again when/if the Dodgers turn to a lefty reliever.

    Solano is not in the lineup Sunday for Game 2 of the NLDS against the Dodgers.
