Rangers' Elier Hernandez: Shifting to minor-league camp

Hernandez was reassigned to the Rangers' minor-league camp Sunday.

Hernandez was never a likely bet to make Texas' Opening Day roster and should open the 2023 campaign at Triple-A Round Rock. He had an .880 OPS in 89 games with the affiliate last season, though he also made his MLB debut and went 6-for-33 with 15 strikeouts in 14 contests.
