Fantasy Impact:

Hendricks downplayed the severity of the issue, likening it to normal fatigue that occurs during the season. Nevertheless, the Cubs will give him a breather here. Hendricks, who pitched poorly on Friday night against the Dodgers, has been pitching much deeper into games than usual, so it's more than plausible that he's just a little fatigued. Tyler Chatwood, Mike Montgomery, or prospect Adbert Alzolay will likely take Hendricks' turn.
