DENVER (AP) -The Colorado Rockies activated right-hander Livan Hernandez to start Sunday’s series finale against the San Diego Padres.
Hernandez, who was claimed off waivers from Minnesota on Wednesday, was 10-8 with the Twins before being designated for assignment on Aug. 1. He has a 5.48 ERA and 54 strikeouts in 139 2-3 innings this season.
The Rockies designated reliever Kip Wells, who has missed a large part of the season after having a blood clot removed from his right hand, for assignment.
Wells returned from the 60-day disabled list on July 21 and made his second start of the season that night against the Los Angeles Dodgers. He lasted one-third of an innings, giving up eight runs, seven earned, and seven hits in Colorado’s 16-10 loss.
