Darell Hernaiz - Page 2 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Leaves yard Tuesday Hernaiz went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer, a walk and three RBI in Tuesday's win over the Nationals.

Impact Hernaiz left the yard for the second time in six games since being called up from Triple-A Las Vegas to take the Jacob Wilson's (forearm) spot at shortstop. Hernaiz has now recorded a hit in five of six games and has not struck out over 22 at-bats. Hernaiz should continue to get a lot of at-bats with Wilson's timeline to return still unclear.

Stepping in as everyday shortstop Hernaiz will start at shortstop and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.

Impact With Jacob Wilson (forearm) stuck on the injured list, Hernaiz appears to have taken over as the Athletics' primary shortstop. He'll collect his fifth straight start Sunday after going 5-for-14 with a solo home run over the previous four contests.

Goes deep in victory Hernaiz went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in a 5-4 win against Seattle on Wednesday.

Impact Hernaiz isn't known for his power, but he gave the A's a 4-1 lead with a 410-foot shot to left field in the fifth inning Wednesday. It was just his second start of the season after being recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday. Hernaiz shouldn't be looked to for power -- he hit just four home runs over 95 games with Las Vegas -- but he could provide a decent batting-average boost if he plays enough, as he's hit over .300 in every minor-league stop since the beginning of the 2023 campaign.

Athletics Place All-Star SS Jacob Wilson on 10-Day IL With Fractured Forearm

Recalled from Triple-A The Athletics recalled Hernaiz from Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday.

Impact The 23-year-old will join the big-league roster as the replacement for Jacob Wilson (forearm), who landed on the injured list Tuesday. Hernaiz has spent the entire season in Triple-A, slashing .305/.384/.423 with 50 RBI, 66 runs scored and 12 steals through 441 plate appearances. Max Schuemann will likely see the bulk of starts at shortstop while Wilson is out, though Hernaiz could crack the starting nine against southpaws.

Cut from big-league camp The Athletics optioned Hernaiz to Triple-A Las Vegas on Monday.

Impact Hernaiz turned in a lowly .503 OPS over 48 games in the majors with the Athletics last season and hit just .194 in Cactus League play, so he never seemed to built much of a case for a spot on the Opening Day roster. The 24-year-old infielder should get the chance to play on an everyday basis at Triple-A.

MARCH 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Contributes as in-game replacement Hernaiz entered Sunday's loss to the Mariners as a defensive replacement at third base in the seventh inning and went 1-for-1 with a two-run double.

Impact Hernaiz made things interesting during his only plate appearance, doubling home Seth Brown and Zack Gelof in the ninth inning to slice a four-run deficit in half. The young infielder played only 48 games at the major-league level during his rookie 2024 campaign, with a near two-month stay on the injured list due to an ankle issue playing a part in that. Hernaiz finished with just a .192 average and .503 OPS across 135 plate appearances; however, his adequate 8.1 percent walk rate and 20.0 percent strikeout rate in his first brush with big-league arms and his career .294/.358/.424 minor-league slash line imply he could certainly take a notable step forward if he remains healthy in 2025.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Recalled Tuesday Hernaiz was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday.

Impact Hernaiz was optioned at the end of August after playing in 20 games in his return from the 60-day injured list. He now rejoins the big league club after posting a .836 OPS in Triple-A since then. In a corresponding move, Ryan Noda was optioned to Double-A Midland.

SEPTEMBER 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sent back to Triple-A The Athletics optioned Hernaiz to Triple-A Las Vegas following Sunday's 4-3 win over the Brewers.

Impact Hernaiz's demotion clears room on the roster for fellow infielder Jacob Wilson (hamstring), who appears set to return from the 10-day injured list ahead of the Athletics' next game Tuesday in Cincinnati. Since being activated from the 60-day IL earlier this month, Hernaiz had settled in as the Athletics' primary option at third base, but he slashed just .209/.306/.326 with three extra-base hits and no stolen bases over 15 games to earn a trip back to Triple-A. With Wilson likely to take over as the Athletics' everyday shortstop, Max Schuemann is expected to slide over from shortstop to replace Hernaiz at third base.

AUGUST 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Not starting Saturday Hernaiz isn't in the Athletics' lineup for Saturday's game against Milwaukee.

Impact Hernaiz went 0-for-3 with a walk and an RBI in Friday's series opener, and he'll now take a seat Saturday while Tyler Nevin starts at third base and bats seventh.

AUGUST 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Hits pair of doubles Hernaiz went 2-for-4 with two doubles and an RBI during Thursday's 3-1 win over the Rays.

Impact Hernaiz entered Thursday's contest with zero doubles in 113 plate appearances but notched a pair of two-baggers off Jeffrey Springs. While the 22-year-old has struggled to a .202/.267/.250 slash line this season, he'll continue to see plenty of work down the stretch for the 55-73 Athletics.

AUGUST 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Out of Wednesday's lineup Hernaiz is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.

Impact It's the second time on the bench in the past three days for Hernaiz, who has a .206/.289/.294 slash line through 11 games in August. Tyler Nevin will start at the hot corner and bat sixth in his place.

AUGUST 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sitting out Monday Hernaiz is not in the lineup for Monday's contest against the Rays, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Impact Hernaiz had started each of the last five and seven of the last eight games at third base, but he will begin this one on the bench. Abraham Toro is getting the call at the hot corner in the series opener versus the Rays.

AUGUST 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

On base three times Wednesday Hernaiz went 2-for-3 with a walk in a loss to the Mets on Wednesday.

Impact Hernaiz had one of two multi-hit efforts for the Athletics in a game where there bats quieted considerably. The rookie finally pulled his season average up to the Mendoza Line with Wednesday's production, and he's now hitting an even .300 over the 22 plate appearances covering his last six games.

AUGUST 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Starting at hot corner again Hernaiz will start at third base and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Mets, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Impact Hernaiz is emerging as Athletics manager Mark Kotsay's preferred choice at the hot corner, having started there four times in a five-game span. The 23-year-old has just a .561 OPS in August since being recalled, although that's better than former starter Abraham Toro's .345 OPS this month.

AUGUST 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Back on bench Sunday Hernaiz is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

Impact Hernaiz had started in each of the last three games, but he'll likely move back into more of a utility role after Seth Brown returned from the paternity list Saturday. In Sunday's series finale, the Athletics will roll out an infield of Brown at first base, Zack Gelof at second base, Max Schuemann at shortstop and Abraham Toro at third base, and that will likely be the team's preferred configuration against right-handed pitching.

AUGUST 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Slugs first big-league homer Hernaiz went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in a loss to the Blue Jays on Friday.

Impact The rookie accounted for the Athletics' only run of the game with his 391-foot shot to left center in the third inning, his first big-league homer. Friday's start was the fourth in six games for Hernaiz since returning from the 60-day injured list, and he's now hit safely in two of the last three contests. However, Friday's blast was the first extra-base hit of his career as well, and he's still limping along with a .188 average and .472 OPS across 90 plate appearances this season.

AUGUST 10, 2024 • MLB.COM

Hitless in return to action Hernaiz (ankle), reinstated from the injured list earlier in the day, started at second base and went 0-for-4 in a loss to the Dodgers on Saturday.

Impact The rookie infielder logged his first big-league action since May 7 after finally overcoming a troublesome ankle injury. Hernaiz had hit well during his rehab assignment with Triple-A Las Vegas, but it wouldn't be surprising if his timing against major-league arms takes a while to resurface.

AUGUST 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Reinstated off IL Oakland reinstated Hernaiz (ankle) from the 60-day injured list Friday.

Impact Hernaiz has been on the injured list since May 8 due to a left ankle sprain, and he was transferred to the 60-day IL one week later. He started his rehab assignment July 20, and across his nine rehab outings he slashed .364/.432/.545 with two stolen bases, three doubles, one home run and two RBI across 37 plate appearances. To make room for Hernaiz on the 40-man roster, the Athletics transferred right-hander Luis Medina (elbow) to the 60-day injured list.

AUGUST 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Remains on assignment Tuesday Hernaiz (ankle) played a full game at shortstop in Triple-A Las Vegas' loss to Albuquerque on Tuesday, going 2-for-4 with a walk and three runs.

Impact Hernaiz was charged with an error as well, but otherwise, his night was yet another step in the right direction. The 22-year-old appears ready for activation at any point moving forward, as he's now forged a .345 average and .873 OPS across 33 plate appearances over eight rehab games. Hernaiz has experience playing every infield position besides first base, and with regular second baseman Zack Gelof scuffling at the plate the majority of the season, the former could have a path to fairly regular playing time once he returns to the big-league roster.
