Taillon To Cubs

[NWinAZ]

The Cubs and Jameson Taillon have agreed to a four-year, $68 million deal, according to ESPN's Jesse Rogers and Jeff Passan.​

If the Yankees had it to do over again, one imagines they would have given Taillon a qualifying offer. Then again, if Taillon did have the qualifying offer, the Cubs probably wouldn't have gone this far to sign him. The 31-year-old has remained healthy and posted 100 ERA+s each of the last two seasons after struggling to stay healthy for most of his 20s. He'll join Marcus Stroman, Kyle Hendricks and Justin Steele in the Cubs rotation, with Hayden Wesneski, Adrian Sampson and Keegan Thompson likely to be in the running for the fifth spot.
