Cubs (Hendricks) vs Diamondbacks (Henry): 4/16/24, 8:40pm, Marquee

[PackLandVA]

Are we sure Ben Brown is the odd man out when Taillon returns to the rotation?

[Irrelevant Dude]

Ugh.  That's way too hittable.

[Derwood]

Cooked, I tell's ya

[chibears55]

Only a matter of when with Hendricks..

I hope they IL him when Taillon returns, he looks like he could have a severe case of dead arm.

[Cubs420psd]

And Kyle still sucks, nice.

Yes it's almost phantom injury time.

[Derwood]

COOKED

[WhyCantWeWin]

Yep, second time through the lineup and Hendricks gets hit hard. Can't really justify keeping him in the rotation

[chibears55]

He's batting practice up there

[PeanutPunch33]

Hendricks hasn't had it for a few years now, it's time for a change..

[UMFan83]

Kyle is too important to the Cubs past to go out this way. He needs a phantom IL stint to give him a break to figure out how to fix things before the final axe

[KCCub]

Hendricks is toast guys. Hate to see this happening to him 

[ToolDRT]

Not even worth watching when he pitches

[Tryptamine]

He's completely washed at this point.

He better not be.

 

Hendricks throwing straight batting practice.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Kyle Hendricks makes me fuckin sad

[We Got The Whole 9]

His command is just bombed out and depleted 

[UMFan83]

Rough when you come into a start with a 12.08 ERA for the season and it’s gone up so far today

Why though? The velocity is still there the same as before, so why can't he get the command back?

[JD94]

You just can’t run him out there anymore. I’m sorry, but you can’t. He needs to figure his **** out somewhere else. He’s batting practice right now 

[Cubs420psd]

So dumb to bring Hendricks back and I said that at the time.

 

The front office really didn't think they had better, younger, wayyy cheaper options in the rotation than Hendricks? That's just bad self scouting.

[Irrelevant Dude]

Remember when there was talk of a multi-year deal for Hendricks at the beginning of the off-season? At least we dodged that bullet.
