SS/2B and current 2019 Texas Tech baseball commit Darell Hernaiz has been selected by the Baltimore Orioles in the MLB draft in the 5th round with the 138th overall pick.
The 6’1 170 lb. Americas HS in El Paso, Texas product gets picked up by a team so desperately in need of young and viable talent. Like Harris II, this pick is very much a risky situation for Tim Tadlock to “recruit” against, as there is a clear path for Hernaiz in Baltimore, which lacks any sort of talent at any position and has a $402,000 compensation slot value.
