1. fell to my knees in a jewel

2. Thanks, I HATE it 😭

3. Thanks for the career Kyle! Say hi to Trout

4. Guhhh

5. It was time.

6. 😢

7. Sad, but I will continue wearing my Hendricks jersey til the day I die

8. Happy for him, best of luck there!

9. Fell to knees in Portillo’s

10. This sucks. At least the cubs won the world series in 2016. Today sucks. He was my favorite.

11. Good luck Kyle

12. *Yawns* Ah, man, just woke up – surely, this must be the only bad news on my feed today.

13. Good for him. Hope he has a bounce back year. He’s still got a lot of innings I bet.

14. FUCK

15. This hurts so much less now that we got Rob Zastryzny back.

16. 

17. Angels take the title next year and Kyle drops Ohtani for the last out.

    I mean it’s not likely but the law of averages says anything will happen that can.

18. Like, I knew we weren’t gonna give him another contract, but it still fucking hurts.

19. In the aaaaaaaarms offffff the aaaangelllllll

    JK Hendricks isn’t a dying puppy

20. He was the most Cub that has ever Cubbed over the past 10+ years. will be strange seeing him in a different hat. That final start choked me up. I wish him well with his new cursed franchise.

21. Hendricks and Soler: REUNITED AT LAST

22. You either die a hero, or live long enough to play for the Angels

23. Also, the final player from 2016 is no longer here. This fact hits harder than I really thought it would. But it can also mean a new era is upon us. Really want to see some of these prospects in AAA in the Majors here soon.

24. I’m going to miss him so much. Thanks for everything Kyle. We love you.

25. I happen to live in an AL West city. Looking forward to seeing Carl again.

26. I hope we can bring him back for a one-day contract so he can retire a Cub, but if the Angels really want him in the shape he’s in, they can have him.

27. My knees fell off in Panera

28. Bryant leaving hurt. Rizzo leaving was sad. Hendricks not retiring with the Cubs just feels wrong. I’d rather watch him struggle in his final years here than see him in another uniform.

    It’s not rational, but when I chose a signed World Series ball, it was one signed by Kyle. Probably my favorite pitcher of all-time after Maddux.

    Thanks for the memories and the championship.

29. What a shame.

30. On one hand, I don’t see him as a quality starting pitcher anymore and I don’t blame the team for not bringing him back.

    On the other hand, PLEASE NO DON’T LEAVE US WE LOVE YOU KYLE
