Hendriks (forearm) has been given a preliminary timeline of three weeks, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hendriks hasn't pitched since Friday, but while his placement on the injured list can be backdated, he'll need a bit more than a minimum-length absence as he recovers from a forearm strain. The given timeline would see him return sometime in the early part of July. Kendall Graveman appears to be the best choice to replace him in the ninth inning, though he's pitched in two straight games, so any save chance Tuesday would likely to go Joe Kelly instead.

The White Sox placed Hendriks on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a right forearm strain.

EDGE Analysis

Hendriks hadn't made an appearance since Friday before manager Tony La Russa revealed Monday that the closer was battling arm stiffness. The right-hander was scheduled to play catch Monday, but after he apparently didn't respond well to the workout, the White Sox sent him in for an MRI that confirmed the forearm strain. Given the nature of his injury, Hendriks seems likely to miss more than the minimum 15 days, but the White Sox have yet to provide a precise timeline for his recovery. Kendall Graveman is likely first in line to pick up saves while Hendriks is on the shelf.

Hendriks is dealing with arm stiffness ahead of Monday's game against the Tigers, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
