Bergman suffered a strained oblique in Thursday's loss to the Cardinals, Nick Groke of the Denver Post reports. "It didn't look good," said manager Walt Weiss after Thursday's contest.
Entering Thursday, Bergman hadn't pitched since a two-inning appearance against the Diamondbacks back on May 10. He lasted just .2 innings Thursday, allowing one run on two hits, before being replaced on the mound due to an oblique strain. The Rockies have yet to announce whether Bergman will require further testing on his oblique, but regardless, oblique injuries can be particularly worrisome for pitchers. He should be considered day-to-day until further information on his status is disclosed.
