Not everyone takes the big leagues by storm the way that Bo Bichette announced his arrival last summer, and the Blue Jays have been home to plenty of late-bloomers over the last decade or two.
After seeing Jose Bautista, Edwin Encarnacion, Josh Donaldson, and more become stars in their late 20’s, they could have another slugger developing into a star a few years into his career. At least that’s what the Blue Jays are hoping for from 27-year-old Teoscar Hernandez.
The Dominican-born slugger has had an up and down career at the MLB level so far, and has often been the source of frustration for Blue Jays fans since he arrived in a trade with the Astros in 2017.
