Good question. I've been monitoring this and it should have already been done.

Hendrix isn't dealing well with an all-star closer set-up man.

The data is in, and one guy is hot.

No reason not to see if a switch helps Hendrix.

Last night was much better. The Yankees were beating Hendriks’ brains in.

I like the idea that it reaches the 7th or 8th inning and the game is over, but the duo hasn't been at their best yet.

Theoretically it's still a great formula for playoffs.

This team is well built to have a starter give you a chance in every game. Present a nightmare middle order that's hard to get through clean. And close out the game.

Not a team you want to face in a game seven. It's a real shot at a chip. They need to hold this core together and create 5 good chances and hope we get one.

No, they should send him back to the Cubs for a refund....I'd frankly rather have Codi Heuer back than this choke artist.
