About Felix Hernandez Memorabilia & Collectibles
Felix Hernandez is a professional baseball player in the Major League Baseball and is currently playing for the Seattle Mariners as their starting pitcher. Hernandez’ fastballs are measured to have a speed of 100 miles per hour however, the pitcher does not rely that much on speed. Hernandez’ favorite pitching style is a two-seam fastball as well as a hard curve and a slider.
Hernandez’ rise to fame was due to Mariners scout, Luis Fuenmayor, who found the young pitcher playing in Maracaibo, Venezuela. Because Hernandez wasn’t 16 yet at that time, Fuenmayor had to wait a year before he could sign the talent. Hernandez signed as a non-drafted free agent in 2002.
After playing in the minor league affiliates of the Mariners, Hernandez was topped the 2006 Baseball America pitching prospects list and was selected as the Pacific Coast League’s Rookie of the Year as well as Pitcher of the Year.
Hernandez made his MLB debut during the 2005 season and was able to pitch a shutout against the Angels of Anaheim but generally struggled during his first year. Hernandez was made the Opening Day starter of the Mariners during the 2006 season. In 2009, Hernandez was named into the MLB All-Star Game.
