Hendricks agreed to a one-year, $2.5 million contract with the Angels on Wednesday, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports. Bruce Levine of 670TheScore.com first reported that a deal was close and Sherman has provided the financial details. Hendricks -- who turns 35 next month -- didn't have an ideal walk year with a 5.92 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 87:43 K:BB over 130.2 innings with the Cubs. The Angels will pay a modest sum in hopes that the right-hander can bounce back in 2025.

The Angels and Hendricks are closing in on a one-year contract, Bruce Levine of 670TheScore.com reports. There's no word yet on the financial details of the agreement. The Angels will be hoping for a bounce-back season from Hendricks, who collected a 5.92 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 87:43 K:BB over 130.2 innings with the Cubs in 2024. The veteran right-hander will turn 35 in December.

Hendricks did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Reds, allowing two hits and two walks while striking out two over 7.1 scoreless innings. Hendricks needed just 81 pitches to work into the eighth inning, finishing with arguably his best start of the season. Over his final five outings, the veteran logged two quality starts while yielding two earned runs or fewer four times. He'll conclude a disappointing campaign with a 5.92 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 87:43 K:BB across 130.2 innings and will hit free agency this offseason.

Hendricks (4-12) allowed four runs on nine hits and a walk while striking out two over 5.1 innings, taking the loss Saturday versus the Nationals. All nine hits allowed by Hendricks on Saturday were singles as he went on to pick up his 12th loss, tying him for the second most in the National League this season. Hendricks' ERA currently sits at 6.28, and it has not dipped below the 6.00 mark all season. Despite the rough season, the 34-year-old has still managed to throw 121.1 innings in 23 starts.

Hendricks (4-11) allowed one run on two hits across six innings to earn the win Sunday against the Rockies. He walked three and struck out seven. Hendricks hasn't been very good lately, as he came into this start with a 6.10 ERA and 1.89 WHIP across his last five outings, but he turned back the clock Sunday with a vintage performance. The veteran righty came within one strikeout of his season high, and the two hits allowed tied for his fewest allowed in a start this year. The surprisingly effective appearance might be the last start of the season for Hendricks, however, as Justin Steele (elbow) appears ready to rejoin the rotation in the next few days. When that happens, Hendricks could be pushed back into a long-relief role.
