Jameson Taillon Traded to Blue Jays

The Chicago Cubs have traded veteran right-handed starter Jameson Taillon to the Toronto Blue Jays in exchange for cash or a player to be named later. Taillon, who struggled this season with a 5.92 ERA, had been designated for assignment by the Cubs earlier in the week. The move concludes his tenure in Chicago as he heads to Toronto to provide depth for the Blue Jays' rotation.
