Fantasy Impact:

Hernandez said his shoulder felt fine following the workout, and that he expects to be ready to go in five days. The veteran left-hander is rehabbing from a bursitis in his shoulder that forced him to the disabled list on August 5. He is expected to throw a side bullpen session in a few days, and if all goes well, he will rejoin the rotation either against Texas or Houston later next week, albeit on a restricted pitch count. Fantasy owners would be wise to take a wait-and-see approach before inserting him into their lineups.
