Carlos Henrique Hernández (Spanish pronunciation: [eɾˈnandeθ]; born April 22, 1980) is a Venezuelan former professional baseball starting pitcher.
In 2001, he suffered a partial tear of his left rotator cuff diving back to second base.
Despite pitching in pain, Hernández again showed promise in 2002, but his season was hampered by an ongoing injury with his left shoulder.
In a three-year career, Hernández posted a 9–8 record with 136 strikeouts and a 4.54 ERA in 172.2 innings.
Hernández has a low 90s fastball, a very good curveball, a changeup, and he can throw a decent slider as well.
