During his brief stint with Cleveland, he posted a 3.86 ERA with three strikeouts in seven innings of work.
He also spent time with the Phillies last season.
In 2025, Hernandez posted a record of 1-0 with a 6.23 ERA with the Guardians, Tigers, and Phillies. In 43.1 innings, he struck out 25 batters.
He previously spent five seasons with the Kansas City Royals.

Ohio State football has flipped a 4-star recruit from Florida State, and he’s the son of a former Steelers linebacker
COLUMBUS, Ohio – The Ohio State football program has added another member to its 2026 recruiting class by taking a player away from another Power 4 school.
Jay Timmons, the nation’s No. 136 player and No. 17 cornerback, had been committed to Florida State since June 24. His flip is notable because he had planned on following in the footsteps of his father, Lawrence Timmons, who starred at as a linebacker for the Seminoles from 2004-06.
Jay Timmons plays for Pine-Richland High School in Gibsonia, Pa., just north of Pittsburgh. His father played 11 seasons in the NFL, 10 of them with the Steelers, and earned Pro Bowl honors in 2014.
After almost six months as a member of the class, the four-star recruit is choosing to follow his own path by flipping to the Buckeyes.
The four-star recruit joins New Jersey native Jordan Thomas in the class. His addition also fills the loss of Jakob Weatherspoon, who flipped to North Carolina in July.
Overall, Timmons’ decision gives Ohio State’s ninth-ranked recruiting class 22 commitments.
Here is the class as it stands:

Cleveland Schools announces massive consolidation plan to close 23 buildings
CLEVELAND, Ohio — Cleveland Schools expects to close 23 buildings and operate 29 fewer schools under a sweeping restructuring plan that would amount to the district’s largest overhaul in decades.
Cleveland Metropolitan School District CEO Warren Morgan said the changes are necessary to confront steep drops in enrollment, rising operating costs and a looming $150 million deficit. Changes would take effect before the 2026-2027 school year.
The plan, introduced to the school board Wednesday night, would save CMSD at least $30 million annually if approved. Those savings would mostly come from the district cutting administrative staff, including principals and assistant principals, on account of reducing the number of schools.
Morgan told cleveland.com and The Plain Dealer that the number of teachers should stay roughly the same as CMSD’s footprint shrinks, but some layoffs and new hires may occur, as the schools need different personnel.
Consolidation won’t just save money, Morgan said, but will also allow CMSD to offer a better education to more students.
He said during Wednesday’s board meeting that Cleveland’s schools have “pockets of excellence.” Some schools have great academics and others have great sports programs. But to offer all students an excellent education and extracurriculars, action is needed.
The plan significantly shrinks CMSD’s physical footprint. The district will go from 61 PreK–8 schools to 45, and from 27 high schools to 14. Amid the consolidation, 18 CMSD-owned buildings will be closed, and five leased spaces currently used as schools will also be phased out.
In some cases, students won’t change school buildings at all. Several Cleveland high schools like John Hay and John Marshall contain three different “schools” on one campus, each with its own administration.
In those cases, the campus will become one high school. Morgan said specialized programs currently offered at the schools will continue even after the mergers.
Some schools will not merge but will move to a better-maintained building that has capacity.
Morgan emphasized that nearly all of the changes are mergers, not straight closures. This means students won’t be dispersed, and their entire school community can move together into a new building. Cleveland schools also allow school choice, which gives students an opportunity to move freely if parents desire.
District officials say 95% of affected students will move into schools in stronger building conditions, and all students will gain expanded academic and extracurricular opportunities.
Morgan acknowledged the deep disruption that school closings will cause, but he said the district cannot maintain a system built for twice as many students as it now serves.
Since 2000, CMSD’s enrollment has dropped by more than 50%, from 70,000 students in 2000 to 34,000 today. Morgan attributed that downward trend to the drop in the region’s birthrate, not losing students to charters or private schools.
But CMSD largely uses the same footprint as it did 25 years ago.
Because of low enrollment, there are fewer than 5,000 students currently enrolled in schools that will either be merged or moved amid the consolidation plan.
Morgan said additional central-office and administrative cuts will still be needed to stabilize CMSD’s long-term finances.
The board is expected to vote on CMSD’s consolidation plan Dec. 9. Morgan said he does not expect any changes to the plan between now and December, saying district officials have done public engagement for over a year.
Many students and parents want the decision made soon, Morgan said, so they can start preparing.
Here are CMSD’s recommended school mergers and closures.
