A week after the World Series wrapped up, the baseball hot stove is heating up. The Los Angeles Angels continue their active offseason, zeroing in on a key addition to their starting rotation. Sources told 670 The Score’s Bruce Levine that that the Angels are in an agreement on a one-year, $2.5 million deal with right-hander Kyle Hendricks, pending official confirmation from the club. Hendricks, 34, would be the latest addition for the Angels, joining outfielder Jorge Soler, infielder Scott Kingery and first baseman/outfielder Ryan Noda.
Entering 2025, Hendricks has spent his entire 11-year career with the Chicago Cubs, helping them win the 2016 World Series. The signing represents a homecoming for Hendricks, who attended Capistrano Valley High School in Mission Viejo, Calif.
