Named Opening Day starter Hendricks will start the Cubs' Opening Day matchup against Milwaukee on Thursday, Tony Andracki of Marquee Sports Network reports.
Impact Hendricks has had a lackluster performance this spring, as he's posted a 9.53 ERA and 1.76 WHIP in 11.1 innings across four Cactus League starts. In spite of his struggles in camp, the right-hander will be rewarded with an Opening Day start for a third consecutive season. Hendricks made 32 starts for the Cubs last year and posted a 4.77 ERA and 1.35 WHIP in 181 innings.

Has another subpar outing Hendricks allowed four runs on four hits across three innings in Sunday's Cactus League game against the Royals. He walked one and struck out five.
Impact The five strikeouts were nice, but Hendricks otherwise struggled, as he allowed two home runs and saw his spring ERA climb to 9.00 through three starts. The righty's career track record suggests that he should be fine once the regular season begins, though last year's career-worst 4.77 ERA might put a damper on his outlook a little bit. Fantasy managers will want to see Hendricks start off 2022 on a positive note to feel a bit more comfortable about his prospects.

Allows five hits in spring start Hendricks allowed two runs on five hits across two innings in Tuesday's Cactus League game against the Mariners. He struck out one.
Impact For the second straight spring start, Hendricks pitched only two innings. He's allowed eight hits in four total innings of work, so he hasn't been particularly sharp yet. After a down 2021 campaign in which he recorded a career-worst 4.77 ERA, it would be nice to see Hendricks pitch a little better in the early going, but it will of course be much more telling how he looks to begin the regular season.

Goes two innings in debut Hendricks pitched two innings in his Cactus League debut Thursday. He allowed one run on three hits while striking out two.
Impact As expected, Hendricks didn't go very deep into the first game of the spring. The veteran is focused on getting ready for the regular season and turning the page after a tough 2021 campaign. His 4.77 ERA was a career worst, as was his 1.35 WHIP. Hendricks posted a 2.88 ERA and 1.00 WHIP during the condensed 2020 season, and if his 2022 numbers are closer to that range, he'll once again be a top fantasy option, though he's still unlikely to provide much of a boost in the strikeout department.

Cubs' Hendricks eyes return to form coming off rough season
Kyle Hendricks hopes to return to the form that made him one of the Chicago Cubs’ most reliable pitchers in recent yearsMARCH 17, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Spring debut set for Thursday Hendricks will make his spring training debut Thursday against the White Sox, Taylor McGregor of Marquee Sports Network reports.
Impact Hendricks likely won't pitch too deep into the game, as the team will want him to shake off some rust but still stay fresh for the regular season. The 32-year-old, who posted a subpar 4.77 ERA across 181 innings in 2021, will work as the Cubs No.1 or No. 2 starter this season, with newcomer Marcus Stroman filling the other spot atop the rotation. Stroman is set for his spring debut on Friday, so Chicago may be tipping its hand with this order, but more clarity will emerge closer to Opening Day.
