Hernandez dominated in three playoffs series, and in return, the Red Sox infielder/outfielder received a +8 OVR upgrade from the 78 OVR he sported entering the playoffs. And as for postseason star Eddie Rosario, the Braves outfielder jumped up to 85 OVR. This was a +7 increase from the last roster update in October.
