Maybe Hendricks just pitches better than who he is facing the majority of the time.

That's the name of the game, isn't it? He somehow managed to go 7-2 in 13 starts on an atrocious team that lost 90 games and scored only 600 runs. But I'm sure if Jose Quintana had handled those 13 starts he'd have gone 13-0. Run support!

Well, in 4 of those "wins", the Cubs did score 6 or more runs & one of the "losses" was 1-0. So yeah, good call on the run support! Hendricks mainly pitched in the second half of that season when as a team they played a bit better that season, including the bullpen and hitting. Enjoy the game.

Yeah, the team played better because "Winning Pitcher" Kyle Hendricks was starting games instead of a turd like Jeff Samardzija.

I am not sure what would be the most fun to watch right now- Almora going after well hit ball, the Baez snap tag, or the mastery of Hendricks pitching......oh damn, who am I kidding, the Babe's swing!

He almost made a nice catch against the wall. Went in and out the glove.

Now leave this thread and don't come back.
