Jon Lester is gone. Yu Darvish is gone. Jake Arrieta is gone (well, the
Jake Arrieta is gone). But Kyle Hendricks remains, leading the Chicago Cubs rotation in a more obvious way than he ever has before. Having signed a four-year, $55.5 million extension with the Cubs ahead of the 2020 season, the closest thing the Cubs have to a legitimate and studly homegrown starter is now the clear ace of the staff.
