The Baseball America Texas League top 20 prospect list is out, and the Texas Rangers placed on player on the list — Jonathan Hernandez, the 22 year old righthanded pitcher who was promoted to Frisco from high-A Down East in June.
Hernandez, who is at #17 on the list, dominated the Carolina League, but his raw numbers for Frisco aren’t impressive — he put up a 4.92 ERA in 12 starts over 64 innings, with 57 Ks against 36 walks. He improved down the stretch, however, logging a 1.14 ERA in 23.
