Kyle Hendricks has no plans to step away from the game of baseball.
Hendricks told The Athletic that he \"100 percent\" plans to continue his career next year.
\"I\'ll take a step back (once the season ends to) reevaluate and refocus, but I definitely would love to keep pitching,\" the right-hander said.
Hendricks is slated to be a free agent this winter. He signed a four-year, $55.5 million extension with the Chicago Cubs in March of 2019, that also contained a vesting option.
