Chicago Cubs Pick up Kyle Hendricks’ 2024 Option

After a bounce back 2023 campaign, the Cubs are bringing Kyle Hendricks back in 2024 after picking up his option.

The longest-tenured Cub will remain in the Northside of Chicago for at least one more season:

Cubs news: The team is exercising its 2024 option on starter Kyle Hendricks, sources tell ESPN. He’ll make $16.5 million next year. The move was expected, especially so after Marcus Stroman opted out of his deal yesterday. The longest tenured Cub is back for his 11th season.

Just one year ago it was up in the air if Kyle Hendricks would be able to toe the rubber again as a Cub. Now, he has proven he still has plenty left in the tank as the team will be bringing him back to pitch for them again in 2024.

A capsule tear in his right shoulder ended his 2022 season early and forced him to a late start in 2023, but he had his best season since 2020. In 24 starts, he went 6-8 in 137 innings with a 3.74 ERA, 3.81 FIP,while striking out 93 and walking just 27. He was also in at least the 90th percentile in all of the league in walk rate, hard-hit rate, average exit velocity, and chase percentage

He might not be the guy he once was, but he is still a serviceable MLB starter and will be a key cog in the 2024 rotation, especially after Marcus Stroman decided to hit free agency. Even with Kyle Hendricks’ retention, the Cubs should still be players with other big-time pitchers. This is a good day to be a Cubs fan.
