With the season nearly over, it\u2019s worth pointing out that a former Astros player is on a hot streak with his current team.<\/p>\n

Teoscar Hern\u00e1ndez<\/a> (who is in his third season with the Los Angeles Dodgers<\/a>) is in the middle of a 10-game hitting streak.<\/p>\n

Hern\u00e1ndez had spent the first 1.5 seasons of his MLB<\/a> career with Houston.<\/p>\n

He then played part of six years with the Toronto Blue Jays<\/a> (before the Seattle Mariners<\/a> and Dodgers).<\/p>\n

The 33-year-old has helped the Dodgers win each of the last two World Series titles.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what people have been saying this week:<\/p>\n

@DodgerInsider:<\/a> \u201cTeoscar Hern\u00e1ndez singles in his first at-bat tonight extending his hitting streak to 10 games\u201d<\/p>\n

@SleeperDodgers:<\/a> \u201cTeoscar Hern\u00e1ndez is absolutely LOCKED IN right now. \ud83d\udd25 Last 9 games: .500 AVG 1.433 OPS 2 HR 12 RBI He\u2019s one of the best hitters in all of baseball lately \ud83e\udd29\u201d<\/p>\n

@DodgersNation:<\/a> \u201cTeoscar Hern\u00e1ndez now has a 7-game RBI streak, tying his career-high. He\u2019s ridiculously hot and just drove in 2 more runs for the Dodgers. LA leads the Reds 9-1 in the 4th inning.\u201d<\/p>\n

Katie Woo:<\/a> \u201cThird straight game with a big three-run homer for the Dodgers. This time it\u2019s Teoscar Hern\u00e1ndez who unleashes a no-doubter into the Dodgers bullpen to make this a 5-1 game in the sixth.\u201d<\/p>\n

@nelson__espinal:<\/a> \u201cMookie Betts<\/a> and Teoscar Hernandez are the two players getting the Dodgers out of their offensive rut. Betts just hit a two-run home run; Teo got a single and came in to score. Both are red hot and finding success even against a righty.\u201d<\/p>\n
