Hendriks (elbow) is headed to Texas to meet with his surgeon and hopes to be cleared to face hitters, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hendriks has been throwing two bullpen sessions per week over the last month as he works his way back from Tommy John surgery. In his most recent session Tuesday, he threw 35 pitches and used his full repertoire. There's no clear timetable for Hendriks' return to the active roster yet, but he wouldn't appear too far off from a rehab assignment if things continue trending in a positive direction.

Hendricks (elbow) threw a 30-pitch bullpen session Friday, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hendricks has been ramping up in July, but he has yet to mix in his full array of pitches during a bullpen session. Still, it's an encouraging sign for the 35-year-old in his recovery from Tommy John surgery. Hendricks could advance to facing live hitters soon before beginning a rehab assignment.

Hendriks (elbow) threw a bullpen session Wednesday at Fenway Park, Julian Benbow of The Boston Globe reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hendriks has thrown a number of bullpen sessions without any setbacks; however, he's still limited to throwing exclusively fastballs. The Red Sox haven't offered an estimated return timetable as the right-hander continues to work his way back from the Tommy John surgery he underwent last August. Boston manager Alex Cora referred to it as the beginning of a long process. Hendriks needs to incorporate all of his offerings before facing live batters and heading out on a rehab assignment.

Hendriks (elbow) threw another bullpen session Sunday and is expected to ramp up his activity during the upcoming week, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hendriks finished his three throwing sessions of the week in New York on Sunday and he'll now progress towards the next step in his recovery from the Tommy John surgery he underwent last August. The right-hander remains without an expected timetable to return, but his ability to complete the bullpen sessions without any sort of setbacks is a positive outcome nonetheless.

Hendriks (elbow) threw the first of three scheduled bullpen sessions Wednesday, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hendriks will also throw sessions Friday and Sunday in New York. He was limited to fastballs only, per Red Sox manager Alex Cora, who added that the pitcher is "far off" from a rehab assignment. That remark counters earlier comments from Hendriks, who expressed optimism to be activated around July 30.

Hendriks (elbow) will throw a bullpen session Wednesday at loanDepot park in Miami, Peter Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wednesday's bullpen will be the first of three scheduled sessions for Hendriks, who is recovering from Tommy John surgery. He will throw again Friday and Sunday while the Red Sox are in New York for a series against the Yankees. Hendriks said Wednesday's session is about throwing pitches, while the weekend work is more about mechanics. He's essentially recovered from the surgery and is now building up arm strength.

Hendriks (elbow) threw a second bullpen session Friday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

All 20 of Hendriks' pitches Friday were fastballs, and the right-hander noted Saturday that three more bullpen sessions are planned next week. The 35-year-old is working his way back from Tommy John surgery from last August, and he is aiming to return to the majors before the end of the regular season. In his last full season in 2022 as a member of the White Sox, Hendriks registered a 2.81 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 85:16 K:BB across 57.2 innings.

Hendriks (elbow) threw a bullpen session Wednesday consisting of about 15 fastballs, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hendriks was back on the mound for the first time since undergoing Tommy John surgery last August and was upbeat following the workout. The veteran reliever believes he can make it back from the 60-day injured list by the end of August, but he's not far along enough in the rehab process yet for the Red Sox to put a definitive target date on his return. The Red Sox signed Hendriks to a two-year deal in February with the understanding that anything the right-hander gave the club in 2024 would be a bonus, so the team likely doesn't have any visions of the three-time All-Star supplanting Kenley Jansen as the team's closer when he eventually returns.

Hendriks (elbow) will throw a bullpen session Wednesday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Red Sox pitching coach Andrew Bailey said Hendriks has been throwing "half-mound" sessions, but Wednesday's activity marks the reliever's first session throwing on the top of the mound since undergoing Tommy John elbow surgery last August. If Wednesday's workout goes well, a normal progression would have Hendriks throwing two bullpen sessions per week before ramping up to face hitters.

Hendriks (elbow) is slated to throw a bullpen session later this week, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

It will be his first time throwing off a mound since he underwent Tommy John surgery in early August of last year. Hendriks is hoping to join the Red Sox' relief corps at some point during the final two months of this season, and while that's possible, the bigger-picture goal is having him healthy and ready to roll as a member of Boston's 2025 bullpen.
