• Cubs roster move: Jameson Taillon to injured list, Jordan Wicks recalled

Photo by Matt Dirksen/Chicago Cubs/Getty Images This is a surprise. The Cubs today recalled left-handed pitcher Jordan Wicks from Triple-A Iowa. In a corresponding move, the Cubs placed right-handed pitcher Jameson Taillon on the injured list (retroactive to July 1) with a right calf strain. Wicks has one save, a 4.06 ERA and 46 strikeouts in 12 games (11 starts) with Iowa this season. In...2025

When Jordan Wicks was spotted at Wrigley Field prior to Friday’s game against the Cardinals, initial suspicions — and a few disingenuous “sourced” reports — were that he’d be replacing a member of the bullpen. The idea was that he’d be used to stretch out the rotation as the first half wraps up, and that’s … The post Cubs Place Jameson Taillon ...2025
