The Philadelphia Phillies continue to build depth in their bullpen, agreeing Wednesday to a one-year deal with right-hander David Hernandez.
The former starter turned reliever missed the entire 2014 season following Tommy John surgery, but returned to make 40 appearances last year.
Hernandez posted a 4.28 ERA and 1.31 WHIP across 33 2/3 innings, striking out 33.
Phillies president Andy MacPhail drafted Hernandez in 2005 while with the Baltimore Orioles.
