Daysbel Hernández - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Activated, optioned to Triple-A Atlanta reinstated Hernandez (shoulder) from the injured list and optioned him to Triple-A Gwinnett on Saturday.

Impact A shoulder cyst sent Hernandez to the injured list at the start of the season, but he now appears to have moved past the issue. The 29-year-old owns a 3.11 ERA and 1.40 WHIP across 55 MLB innings over the last two years and could be welcomed back into Atlanta's bullpen if he pitches well at Gwinnett.

Shelved with shoulder cyst Atlanta placed Hernandez on the 15-day injured list Wednesday due to a right shoulder sebaceous cyst.

Impact Hernandez didn't pitch after Sept. 6 last season due to right shoulder inflammation, and the issue seems to have lingered into 2026. He didn't make any appearances in spring training, though he was seen throwing a live batting practice session at camp last week. Assuming he hasn't experienced any setbacks since he resumed facing hitters, Hernandez could be cleared to head out on a rehab assignment once the minor-league season gets underway this weekend.

Yet to make spring debut Hernandez (shoulder) threw a live batting practice session Monday but has yet to make his Grapefruit League debut, Chad Bishop of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Impact Atlanta has proceeded slowly with Hernandez in camp after he finished last season on the injured list while recovering from right shoulder inflammation, but the club has yet to confirm that the 29-year-old reliever will open 2026 on the shelf. That said, Atlanta has just three more exhibition games prior to Opening Day, so Hernandez will likely need to pitch in at least one of those contests in order to have a shot at breaking camp with the big club.

Shifts to 60-day IL Atlanta transferred Hernandez (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Sunday.

Impact Hernandez had been on the shelf since Sept. 12 due to right shoulder inflammation, and his move to the 60-day IL officially spells an end to his season. Before getting hurt, Hernandez made 39 appearances out of the Atlanta bullpen and logged a 3.41 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 33:30 K:BB across 37 innings.

Out with shoulder injury Atlanta placed Hernandez on the 15-day injured list Friday with right shoulder inflammation.

Impact Hernandez hasn't pitched in nearly a week, but he allowed three runs while recording just two outs in that outing. He will be eligible for activation during the final week of the season, but given the nature of the injury, Hernandez's 2025 campaign could be over.
