Returns after lengthy absence
Hendriks allowed two runs on three hits while striking out one over one inning in Sunday's 8-4 loss to the White Sox.
Analysis
It had been 22 months since Hendriks last pitched in a major-league game. The right-hander first beat non-Hodgkin's lymphoma before Tommy John elbow surgery sidelined him. He opened the eighth inning, allowing a single to the first batter faced then a two-run home run two batters later. "Some good things to take from it, some not so great things to take from it," Hendriks told Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic. "But, now I can say I've gone out there. Now I can say I've pitched for the Boston Red Sox. Now there's no sentimental value to anything like that. It's go and perform." Returning to the role as a closer may not be in the cards for Hendriks, but the Red Sox want him eventually to be part of a late-game crew.

Officially activated
The Red Sox reinstated Hendriks (elbow) from the injured list Saturday.
Analysis
For the first time since signing with the Red Sox before the 2024 season, Hendriks now owns a spot on the active roster. He figures to take on a high-leverage role out of the bullpen after throwing three shutout frames during his rehab assignment, though his chances of claiming the closer job are slim as long as Aroldis Chapman continues to pitch well. Hunter Dobbins was optioned to Triple-A Worcester in a corresponding move.

Returning Saturday
The Red Sox will reinstate Hendriks (elbow) from the injured list Saturday, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
Analysis
Hendriks has fired three shutout innings while striking out five batters across his three rehab appearances in the minor leagues, and he's now due to join the active roster for the first time since signing a two-year deal with the Red Sox prior to the 2024 campaign. Aroldis Chapman seems to have a tight grip on the closer job in Boston, but Hendriks should still be used fairly often in high-leverage situations.

Will have one more rehab outing
Red Sox manager Alex Cora told reporters Monday that Hendriks (elbow) will pitch one more time for Triple-A Worcester before being activated from the 15-day injured list, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.
Analysis
After beginning the season on the IL due to right elbow inflammation, Hendriks progressed enough in his recovery to embark on a rehab assignment Thursday. He's pitched well in his two outings with the WooSox, allowing one hit and one walk while striking out four across two scoreless innings. Following his next rehab outing and barring any setbacks, Hendriks could join the Red Sox's bullpen as soon as this weekend's home series against the White Sox.
