[QUOTE="ChiefGritty, post: 2064792, member: 746137"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://theathletic.com/5408836/2024/04/12/cubs-kyle-hendricks-bad-start/[/URL] Good article, and shows that pretty much all of Hendricks' problems are 3rd time through the order, as is increasingly common in baseball. It's kind of offensive to those of us who long for the days of Nolan Ryan, but having a guy who's just going to give you 4.5ish innings per outing can be useful if those innings are good. But you need a deep and flexible bullpen to make that work at any scale, which is a big question mark for the Cubs at the moment. Boy would Jordan Montgomery look good in this rotation right now 🤬 Speaking of which, lol [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/39921792/sources-diamondbacks-jordan-montgomery-drops-scott-boras[/URL] [/QUOTE]
