Darell Giovan Hernáiz (born August 3, 2001) is a Puerto Rican professional baseball infielder for the Oakland Athletics of Major League Baseball (MLB).
Hernáiz attended Americas High School in El Paso, Texas.[1] He was drafted by the Baltimore Orioles in the fifth round of the 2019 Major League Baseball Draft.[2] He made his professional debut that year with the Gulf Coast Orioles.
Hernáiz did not play for a team in 2020 due to the Minor League Baseball season being cancelled because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[3][4] He returned in 2021 to play for the Delmarva Shorebirds. He started 2022 with Delmarva before being promoted to the Aberdeen IronBirds.[5][6]
Hernáiz was traded to the Oakland Athletics on January 26, 2023, for pitchers Kyle Virbitsky and Cole Irvin.[7] He split the season between the Double–A Midland RockHounds and Triple–A Las Vegas Aviators, playing in 131 games and hitting .321/.386/.456 with nine home runs, 71 RBI, and 13 stolen bases. On November 14, 2023, the Athletics added Hernáiz to their 40-man roster to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.[8]
On March 26, 2024, manager Mark Kotsay announced that Hernáiz had made the team's Opening Day roster.[9]
