Hopes were high coming off King Felix's first start of the season, but Hernandez came crashing back to earth in this one. He remains an inconsistent option that carries more name value than anything at this point in his career.

Luckily X-rays have already come back as negative. This means Hernandez has hopefully avoided a serious injury. The Mariners will still play it cautious with him, however. For now "King Felix" should be considered day-to-day. The 31-year-old posted a disappointing 4.36 ERA in 2017.
