Coach Waddoups on Hernandez: "Diego is a stud athlete. He has the ability to really go get it in the outfield, along with good plate discipline and the ability to put a charge into the ball offensively. We also love his ability to compete on the mound. He will be an impact player here at MSUB for years to come. In the recruiting process one of the things that stood out most was the way people talk about his character. He is an all-time great dude."
 
Hernandez on choosing MSUB: "I chose MSUB because of the caliber of baseball and experience of the coaching staff. They welcomed me in with open arms, and I felt as if the coaching staff truly believed in me as a player. It has been my dream since I started playing baseball at three years old to play in the NCAA and MSUB offered me that opportunity. The campus is beautiful and the facilities are top notch. Billings felt most like home, and I was beyond comfortable here. I am excited for the memories and opportunities that will be built in my next four years here. GO JACKETS!"
