Hernandez returns to D-backs in Halos trade

CHICAGO -- The D-backs bolstered their bullpen by acquiring right-handed reliever David Hernandez from the Angels on Monday in exchange for Minor League right-hander Luis Madero.

Hernandez has a 2.23 ERA this year in 38 games for the Angels this season.

This will be Hernandez's second stint with the D-backs after compiling a 3.54 ERA for them from 2011-15.

What's up @Dbacks! I've missed you guys!
