  • Dalier Hinojosa: Ends playing career

    Hinojosa has announced his retirement from professional baseball, CiberCuba.com reports.

    After an eight-year career in Cuba, Hinojosa made the jump to affiliated ball in 2014, reaching the majors with the Red Sox the following year. He recorded a 1.51 ERA in 35.2 innings over parts of two seasons in the big leagues, but missed the entire 2017 campaign due to shoulder issues and elected to end his career.

  • Dalier Hinojosa: Released by Phillies

    Hinojosa (shoulder) was released by the Phillies on Tuesday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

    Hinojosa hadn't pitched in a game this year due to shoulder issues, so the Phillies decided to cut ties with the 31-year-old. He'll likely serve as organizational depth if he catches on elsewhere.

  • Phillies' Dalier Hinojosa: Reassigned to minor league camp

  • Phillies' Dalier Hinojosa: Sidelined with sore shoulder

    Hinojosa has yet to appear in a spring training game due to shoulder soreness, Matt Gelb of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    Hinojosa is in camp as a non-roster invitee after losing his 40-man roster spot at the end of last season. He was unlikely to work his way back onto the active roster this spring even if he had been fully healthy.

  • Phillies' Dalier Hinojosa: Outrighted to Triple-A on Friday

    Hinojosa was outrighted to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Friday.

    The 30-year-old pitched decently between the majors and minors in 2016, but there simply isn't room on the 40-man roster as the Phillies look toward the future with their younger pitching options. Hinojosa will likely act as organizational pitching depth for now, but he could be called upon during the season given his competency when facing major league hitters.

  • Phillies' Dalier Hinojosa: Activated, sent to Triple-A

    Hinojosa (hand) was activated from the 15-day DL and optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley, Meghan Montemurro of The News Journal reports.

    Hinojosa has made three rehab appearances for Lehigh Valley following three previous appearances for High-A Clearwater, but he surrendered at least a hit on each occasion. Rather than use him in middle relief in the majors, the Phillies will instead keep him on reserve at Triple-A when the need for bullpen depth arises.

  • Phillies' Dalier Hinojosa: To begin rehab stint Monday

    Hinojosa (hand) will begin a rehab assignment at High-A Clearwater on Monday, Megahan Montemurro of The News Journal reports.

    As expected, Hinojosa will head out on rehab after throwing a 30-pitch, live batting practice session over the weekend. It's unclear how many games the right-hander will require on rehab, but he figures to make a handful of appearances considering he's been out for nearly two months.

  • Phillies' Dalier Hinojosa: Will receive CT scan for bruised hamate bone

    Hinojosa will get a CT scan after it was revealed there is swelling around his hamate bone Wednesday, Meghan Montemurro of The News Journal reports.

    Hinojosa was hit in his pitching hand by a comebacker on April 30 and while initial X-rays came back negative, persistent swelling has called for the need of a CT scan. Results of the scan will likely be released in the coming days and will give a much clearer idea of how long he'll be sidelined.

  • Phillies' Dalier Hinojosa: Lands on 15-day DL

    Hinojosa (hand) was placed on the 15-day DL on Saturday.

    X-rays were negative after Hinojosa was hit by a comebacker on his pitching hand Thursday, and the diagnosis remains a right hand contusion, but he will be down long enough to require a DL stint. Colton Murray was recalled in a corresponding move to take Hinojosa's spot in the bullpen.

  • Phillies' Dalier Hinojosa: Leaves Thursday's game after being hit on hand

  • Phillies' Dalier Hinojosa: Might not get next save chance

    Manager Pete Mackanin would not commit to using Hinojosa when asked if he would close should a save chance present itself Thursday, Jim Salisbury of CSN Philadelphia reports. "That's a good question," Mackanin said. "Let me think about that."

    Hinojosa blew a save Wednesday, allowing two runs on four hits. Mackanin said it looked like Hinojosa was "overthrowing a little." Mackanin also said he believes Hinojosa has the stuff to close, but it wouldn't be a surprise to see him go with another pitcher Thursday if a save chance arises. David Hernandez could be next up.

  • Phillies' Dalier Hinojosa: Implodes in ninth Wednesday

    Hinojosa (0-1) melted down in the ninth inning Wednesday against the Reds, giving up four hits and two runs while recording just one out to take a walk-off loss.

    Two games into the season, the back of the Philadelphia bullpen is already a total mess -- David Hernandez got lit up in the opener and Hinojosa certainly didn't look like the answer at closer here in his season debut. Sure, it's just one game, but the 30-year-old Cuban doesn't have a long track record in the majors and hasn't necessarily excelled in the minors. It'll probably take more than this to cost him the job, but Hinojosa's already a low-end closer due to what projects to be a lack of save chances -- compounding that with unreliability isn't a good formula for fantasy success.

  • Phillies' Dalier Hinojosa: Would have been used as closer Monday

    Manager Pete Mackanin said after Monday's game that Hinojosa would have closed if the Phillies had the lead in the ninth inning, Jim Salisbury of CSN Philadelphia reports.

    David Hernandez blew the lead in the eighth inning, so Hinojosa did not get his chance. He should get the next opportunity that comes up given how poorly Hernandez pitched Monday.

  • Phillies' Dalier Hinojosa: Still in the mix for closing duties

    Hinojosa remains in the mix to close for the Phillies, Ryan Lawrence of the Philly Voice reports.

    Manager Pete Mackanin said Monday that he is still trying to figure out "the best way to go" with his closing situation. He also said he won't name a closer until he is 100 percent sure about putting someone in that role. That could lead to the Phillies opening the year with a committee. Hinojosa and David Hernandez look like the top two choices to close at the moment. Hernandez may be the slight favorite for the job. Andrew Bailey, who was once considered the front-runner to close, might now be looking at a trip to Triple-A at the start of the season.
