If a team wants to add Liam Hendriks and oversee his recovery from Tommy John surgery, it will need to act fast.
According to Jeff Passan of ESPN, Hendriks will decide by Thursday as to whether or not he is going to sign. Otherwise, he will continue his rehab on his own and will throw for interested teams in July. Passan also reported that Hendriks has offers from multiple teams, giving him several options.
Hendriks would be an intriguing buy-low candidate. He made only five appearances last season as he missed the beginning of the year due to his battle with stage 4 non-Hodgins lymphoma. He made an emotional return on May 28, receiving a standing ovation. His comeback only lasted a couple of weeks, though, as he landed on the injured list due to elbow inflammation. That inflammation proved to be more serious than originally believed, leading to Tommy John surgery.
