Hernandez was released by the Yankees on Wednesday, Conor Foley of The Scranton Times-Tribune reports.
Hernandez inked a minor-league deal with the Yankees in mid-August shortly after being let go by the Reds, and he now makes his way back to free agency. The 34-year-old allowed six runs over seven innings at Triple-A after struggling with a 8.02 ERA for the Reds.
