Hernandez will start in center field and bat leadoff in Tuesday's game against the Tigers, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

Hernandez has led off in each of the Red Sox's five games to date, but manager Alex Cora could adjust the lineup if the 30-year-old's ongoing slump continues much longer. He's hitless through 17 at-bats and has walked just twice, resulting in Hernandez carrying a .105 on-base average into Tuesday's contest.
