The Indians released Hernandez on Sunday. Hernandez inked a minor-league deal with the Indians in early July and was added to the team's 60-man roster pool, but he apparently didn't make enough of an impression at Cleveland's alternate training site over the past two-plus months to earn a promotion to the big club. He's now free to pursue opportunities with other organizations ahead of the 2021 campaign.

Hernandez signed a minor-league deal with Cleveland on Friday and will join the team's 60-man roster pool. The 35-year-old has been an effective reliever at times during his 10-year big-league career, saving 24 career games while posting a career ERA of 4.12. He looked quite poor in 42.2 innings with the Reds last season, however, struggling to an 8.02 ERA, though he did at least record a 26.8 percent strikeout rate, his highest mark since 2012.

Hernandez was released by the Nationals on Saturday, Jessica Camerato of MLB.com reports. Hernandez was a non-roster invitee for the Nationals this spring, but he struggled with a 19.29 ERA and 2.57 WHIP over just 2.1 innings. The right-hander was effective in 2017 and 2018 prior to an unimpressive showing with the Reds last season, in which he posted an 8.02 ERA and 1.71 WHIP. Given his recent lack of production, it wouldn't be surprising to see him spend some time in the minors prior to earning a spot in a major-league bullpen.

Hernandez will attend spring training with the Nationals as a non-roster invitee. Hernandez spent a majority of the 2019 season with the Reds, recording a 8.02 ERA, 1.71 WHIP and 53:20 K:BB across 42.2 innings. The veteran reliever owned an impressive 0.98 WHIP in 2018 with Cincinnati and will have the opportunity to make a positive first impressive on the Nationals' big-league coaching staff during spring training.

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.
