Chicago White Sox closer Liam Hendriks is set to return to the active roster on Monday, more than a month after announcing he was in remission following his non-Hodgkin lymphoma diagnosis. 

Hendriks, 34, missed the first two months of the season after he revealed in early January that he had been diagnosed with stage 4 non-Hodgkin lymphoma. In early April, he underwent his final round of chemotherapy, and on April 20 he officially announced that he was "cancer free."

Now, more than a month after being in remission, Hendriks is ready to return to the mound.
