Chicago Cubs
Hendricks did well in his first start of the year going six innings only giving up one run off of four hits, while walking three and striking out five. These are the type of performances to expect from Hendricks, doesn’t blow you away with power, but is crafty enough to keep the hits and runs low.
He didn’t have the impact most people thought he would last year, but in his defense he was dealing with hand tendinitis, but after the All-Star break he was able to regain his form and posted a 2.19 ERA and a 1.18 WHIP in his 13 starts after the break.

It is not the type of start fans were expecting for Chicago as they are only slashing .204/.308/.352 in their first five games while smacking 18 extra-base hits for only 18 RBI. Luckily for them there is a ton of baseball left.
Milwaukee Brewers
What a rough start it’s been for Woodruff pitching in relief for 3.1 innings giving up two runs on six hits, while he also was struck by two consecutive line-drivers against San Diego. Luckily all he suffered was some bruising from those hits.
Woodruff is looking to take a rotation spot for Milwaukee, and he certainly carries upside with swing-and-miss potential as he led the minors last year in strikeouts and strikeout rate. He has a dominant slider, and if he can get a hold of his fastball he shouldn’t have a problem holding down a spot in the rotation.

Milwaukee’s lineup has been stymied by Hendricks only hitting .193/.240/.310, while only hitting nine extra-base hits and 12 RBI in 145 at-bats. Also add in a weak walk-to-strikeout ratio of 8:38.
They have gotten off to an okay start in their first week of the season slashing .262/.311/.403 to go along with 19 extra-base hits and 26 RBI.
