Hendricks has made a goal to pitch 200 innings in 2015, MLB.com's Carrie Muskat reports.
Analysis:
Manager Joe Maddon indicated Monday that Hendricks will be fourth in the Cubs' rotation this year. Considering that only 14 pitchers topped 200 innings last year and the Cubs' leader (Travis Wood) finished with 173.2, Hendricks' goal might be tough to reach, but he threw for 183 innings between Chicago and Triple-A Iowa in 2014, so it's certainly possible.
