After dropping from 92.8 mph to 91.1 mph after the 2015 season, Hernandez’s fastball has been largely the same and averaged 90.4 mph in 2019. The bad news? Its SwStr (4.1%), O-swing (10.6%), and WRC+ (349) were career worsts. The good news? Its usage dropped to just 7.5%, making it his least used pitch.
