Teoscar Hernandez to start rehab assignment with Dodgers on Tuesday

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Teoscar Hernandez is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment on Tuesday with Triple-A Oklahoma City. The assignment is expected to last 4-5 games, with the potential for his return before the end of June against the Athletics. Hernandez has been on the injured list since May 29 due to a Grade 1 hamstring strain suffered during a game versus the Rockies. Prior to his injury, he was showing improved performance, elevating his OPS significantly during May. Ryan Ward has filled in during his absence, contributing offensively but may face challenges remaining on the roster when Hernandez returns.
