""The Dodgers are interested in re-signing Kiké Hernández after re-signing Miguel Rojas," McKain said. "...All signs point to Kiké Hernández being back with the Dodgers after that Miguel Rojas signing. I'm very confident that's going to happen. You just have to wait towards spring training when that 60-day IL opens up, and he can sign, go on [the injured list] and rehab and hopefully he's back in a couple of months.""
"Hernandez under went surgery on his left elbow this offseason, and is set to miss the first month or two of the 2026 regular season. The Dodgers would be able to keep a roster spot open if they're to wait to sign Hernandez until the injured list opens up, which is the most likely case. The 34-year-old has played nine seasons with the Dodgers across two stretches, the first of which came from 2015-2020."
"Hernandez played 648 games with the Dodgers during his first stint in LA, hitting 68 home runs and logging 213 RBIs during that time. Across those six seasons, Hernandez had a .737 OPS. After the Dodgers won the World Series in 2020, Hernandez elected free agency and signed a deal with the Boston Red Sox. He spent two and a half seasons in Boston."
The Dodgers re-signed Miguel Rojas to a one-year deal and are reportedly interested in bringing back veteran utility player Kiké Hernández. Hernández had left elbow surgery in the offseason and is expected to miss the first month or two of the 2026 season. The Dodgers could delay his signing until the 60-day injured list opens to preserve a roster spot while he rehabs. Hernández is 34 and has played nine seasons with the Dodgers across two stints, including a 2015–2020 run. He previously spent time with the Boston Red Sox before returning to Los Angeles in 2023 and has served as a versatile supplementary player.
