Here’s what people were saying about the trade:

Keegan Matheson: “Jameson Taillon clearly profiles as a starter who can step in and handle a rotation spot the rest of the way, presuming the #BlueJays deal a starter. Down year for him with the Cubs and we don’t know the dollar figures just yet, but a very sensible option for that role.”

Blue Jays: “OFFICIAL: We’ve acquired RHP Jameson Taillon 🇨🇦 and cash considerations from the Cubs in exchange for a player to be named later or cash considerations. Welcome to Canada’s Team 🍁”
