Rotowire
Hernandez (shoulder) will shift his rehab assignment Tuesday from the Blue Jays' rookie-level Florida Complex League affiliate to Single-A Dunedin, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
Hernandez currently resides on Triple-A Buffalo's 7-day injured list with a right shoulder injury that has kept him out of action for the Blue Jays' top affiliate since June 19. After coming out of two rehab appearances in the FCL no worse for the wear, Hernandez will now get a bump up in competition as he continues the buildup process. Before landing on the IL, Hernandez turned in a 1.80 ERA and 0.80 WHIP while striking out 28 in 20 innings at Triple-A.

Blue Jays' Adrian Hernandez: Diagnosed with shoulder soreness
Rotowire
Hernandez hasn't appeared in a game at Triple-A Buffalo since June 19 due to right shoulder soreness, Mitch Bannon of SI.com reports.
Although Hernandez has missed a week and a half of game action, he hasn't been placed on the injured list, and he began a throwing progression earlier this week. The right-hander has been effective over 21 appearances between the Double-A and Triple-A levels this year, as he's posted a 1.88 ERA and 0.88 WHIP across 24 innings. If he remains productive once he returns to game action, the 22-year-old should be in consideration to join the Blue Jays' bullpen sometime during the second half of the season.
