Fantasy Analysis
Hensley is scheduled to start again next Tuesday against Arizona. He hadn't allowed a run in relief this season, but as a starter he's 0-1 with a pretty poor ERA. That said, he's only a viable starter in NL-only leagues at this point. He needs a few more starts under his belt. (Updated 07/24/2008).
