Hendricks (3-3) allowed three runs on six hits and struck out four without walking a batter over seven innings, taking the loss Thursday versus the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

Hendricks gave up a leadoff home run to Kyle Schwarber to start the game and a two-run single to Bryce Harper in the third. Aside from those missteps, it was a solid outing for Hendricks, who earned his fourth quality start in seven appearances. His three-game winning streak was snapped due to the lack of run support. Hendricks now has a 2.81 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 22:9 K:BB through 41.2 innings this season. He's projected for a road start in Milwaukee his next time out.

Hendricks (3-2) allowed three runs (one earned) on two hits across 6.1 innings to earn the win Wednesday against the Pirates. He had three walks and two strikeouts.

EDGE Analysis

Hendricks cruised to his third straight win, and the righty allowed two earned runs or fewer in all three starts. The veteran isn't missing a ton of bats, with only 18 strikeouts across 34.2 innings this season, but that's never really been his game. Hendricks will carry a strong 2.60 ERA into his next outing, which will likely come in the middle of next week against the Phillies after the Cubs get back from their weekend trip to London.

Hendricks (2-2) earned the win Friday, allowing two runs on five hits over five innings against Baltimore. He struck out one and did not issue a walk.

EDGE Analysis

Hendricks finished at least five innings and gave up two or fewer runs for the third time over his past four starts. The veteran missed the first two months of the campaign but has looked sharp since making his season debut May 25, posting a 3.18 ERA and 1.06 WHIP across 28.1 innings. He's never been a major strikeout guy, but when he's at his best, the right-hander is throwing a lot of strikes and inducing weak contact. Hendricks has walked just one batter over his last three outings and takes a two-game winning streak into his next start, which is tentatively scheduled as part of a three-game set in Pittsburgh.

Hendricks (1-2) allowed a hit and a walk while striking out three over eight shutout innings to earn the win Saturday over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Hendricks had a no-hitter going into the eighth before Mitch Haniger's two-out double broke up the bid for history. This was the best of Hendricks' four starts this season, and it earned him his first win. He's now at a 3.09 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 15:6 K:BB over 23.1 innings, and he got through Saturday's start with 94 pitches (61 strikes). He's lined up for a tough home start versus the Orioles next week.

Hendricks (0-2) took the loss against San Diego on Monday, allowing four runs on six hits and no walks while striking out four batters over six innings.

EDGE Analysis

In Hendricks' third start of the campaign, he was able to go a season-high six innings, though he also yielded a season-high four earned runs. The veteran was efficient enough in throwing 54 of 84 pitches for a strike and issuing no free passes, but he also missed very few bats, notching just six swinging strikes. Hendricks has been so-so with a 4.70 ERA and 1.50 ERA through 15.1 innings thus far. His lack of strikeouts has long been a weight on his fantasy value, and that's not likely to change in his age-33 campaign.

Hendricks did not factor into the decision Tuesday, allowing one run on six hits and three walks over 5 innings against the Rays. He struck out three.

EDGE Analysis

Hendricks was tasked with taking on one of MLB's top offenses in just his second start of the season, but stepped up and held them to just one run across five innings. Though Hendricks was successful in limiting damage, he struggled with command once again, walking three batters after handing out two free passes in his last start. Hendricks was also limited to just 75 pitches Tuesday, a situation worth monitoring considering he got up to 86 pitches in his season opener. the veteran righty is in line for another start during a four-game road series against the Padres.

Hendricks (0-1) took the loss Thursday versus the Mets, allowing five runs (three earned) on six hits and two walks while striking out five over 4.1 innings.

EDGE Analysis

Hendricks had been out since last July due to a shoulder strain. He was built up fairly well, throwing 86 pitches (56 strikes), but a combination of rust and some poor defense from his teammates made for a lackluster season debut. Hendricks has slipped from a high-end starter to a pedestrian one over the last couple of years, so he's far from a must-start in fantasy. He's lined up for a tough home start versus the Rays next week.

Hendricks (shoulder) was reinstated from the injured list Thursday prior to his scheduled start against the Mets, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hendricks' start Thursday will mark his first appearance since straining his shoulder last July. He put up a 5.75 ERA and 1.34 WHIP across his five rehab starts but was solid in his last three times out, so that momentum could carry over into his 2023 debut.

Hendricks (shoulder) will start Thursday's game against the Mets, Sahadev Sharma of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hendricks has been on the injured list all season due to a strained right shoulder he suffered in July 2022. He got roughed up quite a bit during his first two rehab starts, but he was able to regroup and surrender just three earned runs across 16 innings in his final three appearances. Hendricks' return will give Jameson Taillon a few extra days of rest, as Taillon's next start will now come on Saturday against the Reds.

Hendricks (shoulder) joined the Cubs on Tuesday at Wrigley Field and could soon be activated from the 15-day injured list, Bruce Levine of 670TheScore.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Cubs haven't confirmed Hendricks' next step, but his return to Chicago likely signals that he's completed his minor-league rehab assignment and will soon be cleared to make his season debut for the big club. Friday's series opener against the Reds appears to be a good bet for what would be his first MLB outing since he strained his shoulder last July. The veteran right-hander tossed 82 pitches over six innings of one-run ball Saturday in his fifth rehab appearance for Triple-A Iowa.
