White Sox pitcher Liam Hendriks is nearing a return to the big leagues following his completion of treatment for stage 4 non-Hodgkins lymphoma in December.
The 34-year-old closer is completing his rehab assignment in Triple-A Charlotte this weekend before returning to the White Sox next week. He is cancer-free now and is ready to turn his full focus back to baseball.
“As of now I have a clean bill of health,” Hendriks told reporters on Wednesday. “I’m currently in remission.”
