Stat Review
How does Jose Hernandez compare to other relievers?
This section compares his stats with all relief pitcher seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 30 innings)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.

* Exit Velocity, Barrels/BBE %, Balls Hit 95+ MPH %, and Spin Rate are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 30 IP). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

James Anderson pinpoints relievers and potential relievers from the minor leagues who could develop into the next great fantasy baseball closer, including recent Angels draftee Ben Joyce.
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Hernandez was selected by the Pirates during the Rule 5 draft in December, and he'll need to remain on the major-league roster all season for the team to retain his rights. The 25-year-old was previously in the Dodgers organization and split 2022 between the High-A and Double-A levels, and he had a 3.32 ERA and 69:25 K:BB across 59.2 innings in total. Hernandez is poised to fill a low-leverage role for Pittsburgh in 2023, and it remains to be seen if the club sees enough to keep him in the big leagues all year.
