Predict Kyle Hendricks' Season

[ctcf]

He may be the biggest mystery on this team. He barely makes any sense. He is currently destroying Spring Training. When the season is over, what will his stat line look like?

Cy Hendricks

I've said here before, everyone is underestimating this guy. I think he's some kind of genius.

 

215 IP 188H 31 BB 155 K 2.03 ERA

[Clem Fandango]

Something like...

 

203 IP 2.78 ERA 127 K 34 BB 1.09 WHIP 3.54 FIP 147 ERA+

 

Precision pitching + good defense + good pitch framing = sleeper Cy Young Candidate

Great job, you've turned him into Jaxon 2.0

Five consecutive batters reach base vs. Hendricks, who is pulled with 1 out in 6th.

He's gonna be a beast. A plodding, slow as [expletive] beast.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

4.5+ ERA, maybe out of rotation.

200 IP, 3.80 ERA, BB/9 under 2.

i just can't believe in guys who don't strike people out. i'll say he's the guy we replace with a big trade in june.

Dude's a wizard.

 

Low 3's/High 2's ERA

 

K/9 in the 6's, BB/9 in the high 1's.

[Post Count Padder]

Gonna go with an ERA around 3.75-4.00. I think he starts off awesome but the league starts to figure him out in the second half.

[Guest]

Solid starter with a mid 3's ERA.

[tfarks]

Whatever ridiculous things maddux was doing in his prime, most likely. 2-seamers 4 life.

for hendricks or the batters he faces?

[Guest]

The moment they announce the strike zone is moving up again is the day to trade Hendricks. Until that day comes, I think Hendricks is gonna be real good.

i have hope that he can basically repeat last year's performance on average. my worry is the lack of k's + modest gb% means that his outcomes are going to be babip dependent to an extraordinary degree. let's hope he has good luck

 

edit: that said, for me i think he's probably the most intriguing sp we have. so for days he starts, i'm all

Mid 3's ERA until July when he gets traded with Baez for Hamels.
