ANALYSIS
Hjerpe hasn't pitched for Double-A Springfield since July 2, and with two more weeks of down time, he likely won't be ready for game action before September. He had surgery last August to remove a loose body from his elbow, but the exact nature of his injury isn't clear this time around. Hjerpe has posted a 3.27 ERA and 76:28 K:BB over 52.1 innings between the High- and Double-A levels in 2024.
