The Cubs starting rotation has been outstanding. What happens when Kyle Hendricks comes back?

The five men currently in the Cubs starting rotation — Shu014dta Imanaga, Jameson Taillon, Javier Assad, Justin Steele and Hayden Wesneski — have combined for 23 starts so far this year. That’s 60.5 percent of the 38 games the Cubs have played in 2024 to date.

In those 23 starts, those five have combined for 129u2153 innings (an average of 5.6 innings per start) and posted an ERA of 1.39 and a WHIP of 0.936. They’ve allowed seven home runs and struck out 112. (This does not include Wesneski’s two relief appearances.) The Cubs are 15-8 in games started by those five.
