Red Sox activate Darwinzon Hernandez from the injured list

Back in March when we thought we still lived on a semi-normal planet and things were still looking like we’d have a typical baseball season, Darwinzon Hernandez was one of the more exciting players on the Red Sox roster. The lefty had some buzz building to get another shot as a starter, but at the very least he appeared to be a potentially electric late-inning arm. We had seen the stuff as a rookie, and were excited for a second year. Unfortunately, Hernandez tested positive for COVID as the team was coming back together in late-June.
