Jameson Taillon tosses quality start, Cubs fall short
by Chris Schommer | Cubs Correspondent | Sun, Aug 4th 8:08am EDT
Jameson Taillon delivered a solid performance, allowing just one earned run on six hits with no walks and four strikeouts over six innings in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Cardinals.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the quality start, Taillon's effort wasn't enough to secure a win for the Cubs, leaving his record unchanged. His season ERA of 3.25 and WHIP of 1.16 continue to reflect his reliability in the rotation, though his modest strikeout rate limits his upside in fantasy formats that heavily reward strikeouts. The game does reinforce Taillon's role as a steady, if not spectacular, fantasy option, particularly in leagues that value ERA and WHIP over sheer strikeout numbers.
