Liam Hendriks has reportedly been dealing with kidney stones, according to manager Tony La Russa. La Russa indicated there's a 'good chance' Hendriks could pitch this weekend. (Scott Merkin on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Hendriks hasn't pitched in the past week, but he did throw a bullpen on Wednesday. The White Sox closer has pitched 3 innings so far this spring, and Chicago will be hoping to get him a few more appearances before the regular season opens next week. There has been no official word from the team on whether this affects Hendriks' availability for Opening Day, but it seems like he is headed in the right direction and will be ready sooner rather than later. Hendriks is currently the second ranked RP in the expert consensus rankings, and this minor setback shouldn't impact his fantasy value.
