Hendricks has a shoulder impingement which could keep him out until the All-Star break, Jesse Rogers of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hendricks was diagnosed with shoulder inflammation when he landed on the injured list Saturday, and he said at the time that he was expecting a brief absence. Tests evidently revealed a slightly more serious injury, but the issue was apparently caught early and may not keep him out for too long.

Hendricks doesn't think his shoulder injury is serious, Gordon Wittenmyer of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hendricks was placed on the 10-day injured list with right shoulder inflammation Saturday. He didn't think the injury occured on any one pitch, but instead felt a growing discomfort over the last few days. He hopes to be back after a brief period of rest, though the Cubs should know more after further tests.

Hendricks was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday with right shoulder inflammation, Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

The injury perhaps explains Hendricks' poor start against the Dodgers on Friday in which he lasted just 4.1 innings while allowing five runs. He'd cruised to a 1.99 ERA over his last eight starts prior to Friday, so it doesn't appear as though this is a problem he's been dealing with for a long time. It's not clear when the Cubs expect him to return. Rowan Wick was called up in a corresponding move.

Hendricks (7-5) pitched 4.1 innings, allowing five runs on six hits and two walks. He took the loss and struck out only one in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Dodgers.

EDGE Analysis

Hendricks had his shortest start since April 7, with his lowest strikeout total of the season. Hendricks has a 3.36 ERA and 1.14 WHIP in 92.2 innings over 14 starts this season. The right-hander will look to bounce back in his next start, taking on the Mets on Thursday.

Hendricks (7-4) picked up the victory over the Cardinals on Sunday, allowing one run on eight hits in seven innings. He struck out three and did not walk a batter.

EDGE Analysis

Hendricks gave up a run-scoring double in the second inning but shut out the Cardinals for the remainder of his start to improve his career record against St. Louis to 7-2. Since dropping to 1-4 following an ugly loss to the Diamondbacks on April 26, Hendricks has won six of his last eight starts, compiling a 1.99 ERA and racking up 50 strikeouts in 58.2 innings over that span. He'll look to continue his string of success in a matchup against the Dodgers on Friday.

Hendricks (6-4) allowed three earned runs on six hits and one walk while striking out 10 across seven innings to earn the win Tuesday against the Rockies.

EDGE Analysis

Hendricks was solved only by Daniel Murphy, who accounted for all three of his earned runs in this start. Otherwise, Hendricks dominated Rockies' hitters, recording his second double-digit strikeout effort this season. He backed that up with both 21 swinging and called strikes, while also starting 18 of the 28 batters he faced with a strike. Hendricks has worked exceptionally deep into games across the past month, working seven or more frames in five of his last seven starts. He'll look to keep that going in his next outing, currently scheduled for Sunday against St. Louis.

Hendricks (5-4) picked up the win in Wednesday's 2-1 victory over the Astros, allowing one run on four hits and a walk over eight innings while striking out seven.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander closed out May the same way he began it, by saving the Cubs' bullpen. Hendricks has worked at least eight innings in four of his last six starts, posting a 1.81 ERA, 0.74 WHIP and 37:5 K:BB in 44.2 innings over that stretch with a 4-0 record. He'll try to keep his momentum going Tuesday, at home against the Rockies.

Hendricks allowed three runs across six innings while not factoring into the decision in Friday's loss to the Reds. He gave up six hits and a walk, while striking out nine.

EDGE Analysis

Hendricks left the game in line for his fifth win of the season, but the Cubs' bullpen allowed three runs over three innings to blow the lead. The nine strikeouts are the most for Hendricks since he fanned 11 across seven innings in a start back on April 19. The righty will take a 3.34 ERA into his next outing against a strong Astros offense on Wednesday.

Hendricks improved to 4-4 in Sunday's 6-5 victory over the Nationals, limiting the opposition to four runs on six hits and two walks over 5.2 innings while striking out four.

EDGE Analysis

After allowing only one earned run in 25 innings spanning his last three starts, Hendricks had nowhere to go but down in Sunday's turn. While the right-hander was unable to keep his momentum going and missed out on a quality start, he made only one major mistake on the night, serving up a three-run home run to Anthony Rendon in the sixth inning. He still exited the contest with the lead and evened his record after the Chicago bullpen steered clear of a late implosion. The right-hander is slated to return home for his next start as he faces the Reds during the upcoming weekend.

Hendricks (3-4) pitched eight innings of one-run ball to grab the win Tuesday against the Reds. He allowed just three hits and a walk, while striking out seven.

EDGE Analysis

Joey Votto took Hendricks deep in the fourth inning, but the righty otherwise completely stymied the Reds. He also helped his own cause with three hits and two RBI. Hendricks has now gone at least eight innings in his past three starts. In those three outings, the 29-year-old has allowed just one run across 25 innings with a 17:1 K:BB. The strong stretch has allowed Hendricks to lower his ERA to 2.86, and he'll look to keep rolling in his next start, which is scheduled for Sunday against the Nationals on the road.
