Teoscar Hernández has won the silver slugger award for right field in the American League.

Hernández had the best offensive season in his career in 2020, batting .289 with 16 home runs and 34 RBI’s in 190 at-bats.

2020 was Hernandez’s third full season in a Blue Jays uniform since being acquired in 2017 from the Houston Astros.

Before this season, Hernández had never finished a season above .261in batting average. This season though, he took a more patient approach at the plate, being much more selective with what he swings at. This season, the adjustment worked as he had 23 extra-base hits to go along with a career-high OPS of .919.

This is the first silver slugger award of Hernández’s career. The last Blue Jays to win a silver slugger award was Josh Donaldson back in 2016.
