The Astros have released infielder Diory Hernandez, according to Zachary Levine of the Houston Chronicle (via Twitter). Hernandez, 28, struggled offensively as he played for the club's Triple-A affiliate in Oklahoma City.
Hernandez appeared in 75 games for the Braves from 2009-2011, making 138 plate appearances in total. The veteran owns a .270/.311/.366 slash line across parts of five Triple-A campaigns with experience at second base, third base, and shortstop.
Guess this diory wasn’t dear
The Pirates should sign him because he is in line with their team batting average.
