The Chicago Cubs have announced that they will move former ace pitcher Kyle Hendricks to the bullpen after a rough start to the season. With a career-worst 10.57 ERA and an 0-4 record, manager Craig Counsell made the decision on Tuesday to reporters. This change comes as a surprise to many fans and analysts, as Hendricks has been a reliable starter for the Cubs in the past.
The move to the bullpen reflects the team’s desire to make changes and improve their performance on the field. While it is a significant adjustment for Hendricks, he is committed to adapting to his new role and helping the team in any way he can. The Cubs will now look to other pitchers to step up and fill the void left by Hendricks in the starting rotation.
As he transitions to a relief role, Hendricks will work on honing his skills and making an impact whenever he is called upon to pitch. The Cubs organization is hopeful that this move will ultimately benefit the team and lead to improved performances on the mound. Despite his struggles this season, Hendricks remains an important member of the Cubs roster, and fans are eagerly awaiting his return to form.
