Dealing with oblique issue Hernandez will undergo a second MRI on his oblique once the swelling goes down, Mike Wilner of Sportsnet 590 The Fan reports. Impact Previous reports suggested that the injury Hernandez was dealing with was actually a rib issue, but it's instead an oblique problem. He's reportedly feeling a bit better Monday, but given that he's still too swollen for an MRI to be useful, the prognosis doesn't seem particularly good. Even a moderate oblique strain would likely end his season. He's still yet to be officially placed on the injured list, but that will probably happen once he undergoes a second MRI.
