The Mets acquired Hernandez from the Tigers on January 6, 2005 in exchange for Vance Wilson. The Santo Domingo, DR native is an excellent fielder and although his bat is still developing, he has been one of the youngest players at every level he‘s played. In his first year in the Mets system Baseball America tabbed him as the 8th Best prospect in the organization in 2005. They also named him the Best Defensive Infielder. Hernandez was traded to Washington for Luis Ayala on August 17, 2008 but reacquired on August 6, 2009 in exchange for Greg Veloz. He was claimed off waivers by Cleveland on March 17, 2010.
