This comes the day after he got mauled by the Brewers lineup for five runs over four innings, including three home runs. He'll definitely clear waivers and may opt for his release to try and latch on somewhere else. He provides nothing to an organization.

Hernandez appeared in 20 games (11 starts) last season for the Astros, going 3-5 with a 4.36 ERA. He will likely work out of the bullpen for the Braves when he eventually gets called up however his ability to spot start is also valuable.

At 35 years old, Hernandez has not had a winning record for almost 10 years. The move should come as no shock and even less relevence as neither side is seeing much use out of this relationship.

Formerly known as Fausto Carmona has a career 4.58 ERA, 1.41 WHIP, and 5.5 K/9 in 1,349 1/3 career major league innings. In late March, Hernandez opted out of a different minor league deal with the Blue Jays when he did not make the Opening Day roster. He will be used as organizational pitching depth.
