Orioles' Maikol Hernandez: Has hamate surgery

Hernandez underwent a hamate excision on his left hand earlier in March, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Hernandez will likely be out for a large portion of 2024 while he recovers. The shortstop hit .179 with a .577 OPS over 38 games with the Orioles' Florida Complex League affiliate last year.
