⚾ Hendriks' Return Is MLB's Best Story

White Sox pitcher Liam Hendriks is returning after his recovery from cancer. [View in browser]( [FOX SPORTS INSIDER WITH MARTIN ROGERS] In today’s FOX Sports Insider with Martin Rogers: Liam Hendriks is back with the White Sox in one of the most incredible and uplifting stories in recent memory … Mike McCarthy will now be calling the offense for the Cowboys, but how is the transition going? … and more! A holiday is never a bad time to watch baseball, and this Memorial Day is no exception, but sometimes there's a reason beyond the most basic motives, and that's what we have on our hands here. Liam Hendriks may not pitch for the Chicago White Sox against the Anaheim Angels on the Windy City's south side on Monday (8:10 p.m. ET on FS1), yet he might, because he's back, and you won't want to miss it if he does. Hendriks has spent the last six months locked in a struggle with Stage 4 non-Hodgkins lymphoma. The Australian closer, a three-time All-Star, two-time American League reliever of the year and sole possessor of his famed Slydah, went through multiple rounds of chemotherapy and immunotherapy, the most recent being a chemo treatment on Apr. 3. In early April he announced he was "cancer free." In late April he started rehab assignments. On Sunday the White Sox made moves to reinstate him to the roster and said the 34-year-old is ready to go. Manager Pedro Grifol explained that Hendriks would be brought along carefully to make sure that he's primed to "be the Liam Hendriks that we all want him to be, and that he wants himself to be."

[BET OF THE DAY] Odds provided by [FOX Bet]( St. Louis Cardinals to win the National League (+1600) From FOX Sports Betting Analyst: Sam Panayotovich I think there’s some relative value on the Redbirds to win the National League. Most pundits are putting the Braves or Dodgers in the Fall Classic, which isn’t surprising at all. But are you really popping L.A. at +200 or Atlanta at +230? I’m diving deeper down the board and circling St. Louis because I believe the Cardinals are about to burn through a very, very weak Central and win it. That would give them the No. 3 seed in the National League and a much easier playoff path than the New York Mets or San Diego Padres. A lineup with Paul Goldschmidt, Nolan Arenado, Nolan Gorman and Willson Contreras could be a problem in the postseason and if the Cardinals acquire a big arm at the deadline, they’ll be sneaky dangerous in October.
