Astros signed RHP Livan Hernandez to a minor league contract.
The deal includes a spring training invite. We barely heard a peep about Hernandez this offseason, but he is certainly capable of providing rotation depth. The 36-year-old right-hander posted a 4.47 ERA and 99/46 K/BB ratio over 175 1/3 innings last season for the Nationals. He has logged at least 175 innings in each season dating back to 1998.
