Hernandez was selected by the MetroStars in the first round of the 2005 MLS Supplemental Draft and signed a developmental contract with the team for the 2005 season. After not playing a minute in the club's first 29 league games, he started the last three of the regular season, as well as both games in the playoffs. Hernandez was traded to Chivas USA in a trade that allowed the MetroStars to move up to the #1 selection of the 2006 MLS SuperDraft and select Marvell Wynne.
In his initial campaign with Chivas, Hernandez went on to appear in 29 league matches, including 24 starts. During the 2007 season Hernandez saw his role reduced as he appeared in 21 league matches, starting only nine. He started three of the clubs four playoff matches during his two-year stint at the Los Angeles based club.
Hernandez was picked up by the San Jose Earthquakes in the 2007 MLS Expansion Draft.
