HOUSTON (AP) — Seattle’s Félix Hernández has lost his spot in the rotation in the wake of his latest terrible start in a season filled with struggles. The right-hander, who threw a perfect game in 2012, will pitch out of the bullpen for the first time in his career. He’s having the worst season of a 14-year career as the Mariners chase their first playoff berth since 2001.
