Hendricks will pitch in either Game 3 or Game 4 of the NLCS, MLB.com's Carrie Muskat reports.

EDGE Analysis

Manager Joe Maddon announced that Hendricks and Jason Hammel will each start in the series, but did not say which game each would pitch. Hendricks is the likely choice, only because it's his turn, but both pitchers will have more than five days of rest since their last start. The Game 3 starter, of course, is far more likely to get a second start in the NLCS, though the Cubs would prefer to use Jon Lester and Jake Arrieta for as many games as possible.
