Career

Hernández signed with the Atlanta Braves as an international free agent in September 2017. He missed all of the 2022 season, while recovering from Tommy John surgery.[1] Hernández began the 2023 season with the High–A Rome Braves, where he made six appearances, logging a 2–0 record and 8.64 ERA before being promoted to the Double–A Mississippi Braves.[2] Prior to his promotion, Hernández recorded a 0.00 ERA with 26 strikeouts and only four hits allowed between Double–A Mississippi Braves and Triple–A Gwinnett Stripers.[3]

On July 23, 2023, Hernández was formally selected to the Braves' 40-man roster, promoted to the major leagues for the first time, and made his debut later that day against the Milwaukee Brewers.[4] In his debut, Hernández pitched an inning in relief, recording three strikeouts and earning his first career win.[5][6][7] On August 2, Hernández was placed on the 15-day injured list with right forearm inflammation.[8][9] He was transferred to the 60–day injured list on September 11.[10] He ended the regular season having pitched 3+2⁄3 innings across four appearances for the Braves, recording three earned runs on six hits and three walks. Hernández was placed on the roster for the 2023 National League Division Series against the Philadelphia Phillies.[11]
