D-backs activate pitcher David Hernandez from disabled list

Jun 7, 2015, 11:13 AM | Updated: 1:40 pm

The Arizona Diamondbacks sent RHP Dominic Leone to Double-A Mobile and activated RHP David Hernandez from the 15-day disabled list following Saturday’s 2-1 win over the New York Mets.

Leone, 23, gave up three runs in an inning against the Mets on Thursday after being acquired from the Mariners Wednesday in a deal that sent outfielder Mark Trumbo and LHP Vidal Nuno to Seattle.

Hernandez has not pitched since 2013 after missing last season due to Tommy John surgery. He had seven scoreless rehab appearances between Single-A Visalia and Double-A Mobile.

Hernandez is 12-12 with 17 saves and a 3.42 ERA in three seasons with the D-backs and has played in five Major League seasons.
