Enrique Hernandez Could Begin Rehab Assignment Soon

Boston Red Sox skipper Alex Cora said that outfielder Enrique Hernandez (hip) has "felt great" since resuming swinging a bat, and he's made steady progress ever since he got a platelet-rich plasma injection the weekend before the All-Star break. "We'll see [Aug. 9] where he is," Cora said, adding that plans could be in the works soon for a minor league rehab assignment. The 30-year-old has been sidelined with a right hip-flexor strain and is expected to return in mid-to-late August. Outfield prospect Jarren Duran has mostly been playing center field with Hernandez sidelined, but Hernandez should at least return to semi-regular playing time for Boston once he's ready to return. He was hitting .209/.273/.340 with four home runs, 24 RBI and 27 runs scored in 215 at-bats before his injury.

Enrique Hernandez Not Close To Game Action

Boston Red Sox infielder/outfielder Enrique Hernandez (hip) will take batting practice on Friday but isn't close to game action. He has been sidelined since June 7 due to an injured hip. The 30-year-old won't be ready to return until late August at the earliest. He slashed .209/.273/.340 with four home runs, 24 RBI, and 27 runs over 238 plate appearances before landing on the injured list. Hernandez is progressing in his recovery, but a better timeline for his return will be set once he begins a rehab assignment.

Enrique Hernandez Receives Injection

Boston Red Sox infielder/outfielder Enrique Hernandez (hip) received a platelet-rich plasma injection on Friday to help speed up the healing in his injured hip. His diagnosis of a flexor strain remains the same, and he will ramp up activity after the All-Star break. Hernandez had a visit with a hip specialist on Thursday after having his minor league rehab assignment shut down after only one game played. The 30-year-old won't be ready to return until at least late July or early August, so Jackie Bradley Jr. and Jarren Duran should continue splitting playing time in center field until then. Hernandez was hitting a lowly .209/.273/.340 with four home runs, 24 RBI and 27 runs scored before his injury.

Enrique Hernandez Visits With Specialist

Boston Red Sox infielder/outfielder Enrique Hernandez (hip) visited with a hip specialist in New York on Thursday and will consult with that doctor if there's anything more serious going on in his hip after the Red Sox shut down his minor league rehab assignment after just one game due to continued discomfort. The 30-year-old doesn't have a timetable for a return and obviously won't be back with the Red Sox until some point in the second half of the season. He has hit just .209/.273/.340 with four home runs, 24 RBI and 27 runs scored in 215 at-bats this year, but Hernandez is likely to return to a regular role in Boston's outfield once he's healthy enough to return to the lineup. Jarren Duran and Jackie Bradley Jr. have been splitting playing time in center field of late.

Enrique Hernandez To Start Rehab Assignment Friday

Boston Red Sox infielder/outfielder Enrique Hernandez (hip) will begin his minor league rehab assignment on Friday for Triple-A Worcester. If everything goes well on his rehab assignment this weekend, Hernandez could rejoin the Red Sox's roster early next week. The 30-year-old hasn't done much for fantasy managers this year with a slash line of .209/.273/.340 while adding four home runs, 24 RBI and 27 runs scored in 215 at-bats, but he's extremely versatile and should return to the starting center field role once he's activated from the injured list. Once he's back, Jarren Duran and Jackie Bradley Jr. could be competing for playing time in Boston's outfield.

Enrique Hernandez Resumes Swinging

Boston Red Sox infielder/outfielder Enrique Hernandez (hip) took 15 swings on Friday, which is an important step for him in his recovery after he had a setback last week. Hernandez had already resumed throwing this week, but now that he's also swinging again, he could head out on a minor league rehab assignment soon. If the 30-year-old can avoid another setback with his hip, there's still time for him to return to Boston's lineup before the All-Star break in mid-July. Before landing on the injured list, Hernandez was slashing just .209/.273/.340 with four home runs, 24 RBI and 27 runs scored in 238 plate appearances over 51 games in his second season in Beantown.

Enrique Hernandez Recovering Slowly, Return Date Pushed Back

Boston Red Sox second baseman/outfielder Enrique Hernandez (hip) is recovering slowly from a strained right hip and will return at a later date than previously expected. According to Red Sox manager Alex Cora, Hernandez might have had a setback. The 30-year-old has been sidelined since June 5, and more details on the severity of his injury should be announced after further evaluation. Jarren Duran continues to fill in for Hernandez and has been the team's leadoff hitter the previous three games. Duran can be used as a streamer and should be added in all league formats while he has an everyday role. The Red Sox's top prospect has been solid recently, collecting three multi-hit performances and swiping two bags over his last four games.

Enrique Hernandez Placed On Injured List

The Boston Red Sox placed second baseman/outfielder Enrique Hernandez (hip) on the injured list on Wednesday with a right hip flexor strain and recalled Jonathan Arauz from the minors in a corresponding move. Hernandez needs to take some time off after trying to play through his hip injury recently. It has likely affected his performance at the plate, as he's hitting just .209/.273/.340 with four home runs, 24 RBI and 27 runs scored in 238 plate appearances and 51 games so far in 2021. He's gone 13-for-55 (.236) with two homers and five RBI in the last two weeks. Christian Arroyo, who is hitting leadoff against Los Angeles Angels left-hander Reid Detmers on Wednesday, should see more playing time in the outfield with Hernandez on the shelf.

Hernandez is hitting .210 with four homers, 27 runs, and 23 RBI across 210 at-bats in 2022. He has been on a modest hot streak of late, hitting .275 with three homers and seven RBI over his past 15 games.
