It's definitely different,” Taillon said. “It's definitely nice to be wanted. But on the other hand, I think the Cubs have a pretty good roster and it's like a sign

8/11/24 Should Cubs extend All-Star outfielder? 'I see no reason', says insider. The Chicago Cubs have had a confusing season, and they'll have pivotal roster choices to make this winter. With president of baseball operations Jed Hoyer literally fighting for his job over the next calendar year, he'll be thinking long and hard about what to do with valuable pieces like Jameson Taillon and Cody Bellinger. Bellinger presents an interesting scenario for Hoyer. The former National League MVP and two-time All-Star can elect to opt out of his contract at the end of this season.

8/09/24 Cubs coveted hurler surprisingly traded in new prediction for 2025 season.

The 32-year-old starter is in the second year of his four-year, $68 million contract with the Cubs, but a new report indicates that Chicago could be trading Taillon next season.

7/30/24 Jameson Taillon drops hint about Cubs' plan amid MLB trade deadline rumors. With a 51-57 record that has them at last place in the NL Central, one would think that the Chicago Cubs would be inclined to sell with the MLB trade deadline inching closer and closer.

Taillon, who remains under contract until 2026 and has a no-trade clause blocking potential deals to 10 teams, revealed to reporters that there may not be an imminent trade involving him, since the Cubs haven't yet approached him regarding waiving his clause.

7/28/24 Insider Says Dodgers Are Trying to Acquire Chicago Cubs Star Gold Glover. With the trade deadline right around the corner, some reports have indicated the Chicago Cubs are finally resigning to the fact they are going to be sellers. The Cubs have the ability to trade away multiple assets and get back a haul in this market. Jameson Taillon is generating tons of interest around the league after putting together a great year. Depending on how aggressive Chicago wants to be, they could look to offload some of their bullpen arms to contenders, move Cody Bellinger, who has an opt-out after the year, and even Ian Happ, whose switch-hitting and Gold Glove defense is attractive to multiple teams.
