JIM HENDERSON RUMORS

Henderson concerned with present, not future

MILWAUKEE -- Jim Henderson had already been through a lot in his minor league career. Injuries, eight disabled list trips in 10 years to be exact, had already set him back.But the one that got him occurred when he was so close to overcoming it all and breaking through to the major leagues. After the Cubs selected him in the 2006 Rule 5 Draft from the Expos organization, Henderson...

Don’t Blame Henderson, John Axford Diss

As Sam Cooke said when looking at John Axford on my fantasy teams, "Change is gonna come." Thanks, Sam. Sam also said the same thing after I gave a waiter twenty dollars on a $12 bill. Speaking of paper money, is it me or do people pull out a five dollar bill and also wonder to themselves, "Hey, when did they put Daniel Day Lewis on money?" The Brewers said...

John Axford Loses Closers Job, Jim Henderson Hot Pickup

Monday was a pretty mundane day for Milwaukee Brewers pitcher John Axford as he literally was given the axe as the closer in the Milwaukee bullpen. Taking over until Axford gets back on track is Jim Henderson. In 2 and 2/3 innings this season, Axford had allowed four home runs and a 20.25 ERA. Don’t over think yourselves though, as Axford does have 81 combined saves the past...

Just How Broken is John Axford, Really?

Monday afternoon, the Brewers were leading the Cubs 7-2 going into the bottom of the ninth. Brandon Kintzler took the mound, but after three straight batters reached base, he was replaced by Jim Henderson. Henderson allowed a little bit of damage, but he successfully slammed the door, picking up a save. Henderson pitched in part because John Axford threw 18 pitches on Sunday. Henderson...

Brewers? Brewers who?

I've been struggling to think of things to write about the Brewers lately. At one point I wanted to write a post about how Jim Henderson is the GREATEST CLOSER IN BREWERS HISTORY, but I obviously missed that bandwagon. Who would've thought that Honey Boo Boo's 15 minutes of fame would last longer than Jim Henderson's 15 minutes of being a good reliever? (Don't...

Henderson took long road to majors

DENVER Two hours before the Milwaukee Brewers are set to take on the Colorado Rockies in their last game at Coors Field this season, the reliever who was never supposed to be here smiles wide, holding a hand of playing cards close to his chest. Jim Henderson never could have imagined this card game three weeks ago, when he was still just a 10-year veteran of the minor leagues,...

Brewers' Henderson struggles in Houston

One day after Milwaukee Brewers manager Ron Roenicke explained that reliever Jim Henderson was the only reliable option in the Brewers bullpen, Henderson proved, like the rest of the bullpen has often this season, that he wasn't invincible. That didn't seem to be the case in the Brewers ninth inning against the Astros on Saturday night though, as it took just 13 pitches...
