Summary
Chicago Cubs pitcher Jameson Taillon has suffered a "moderate" hamstring strain, forcing him to miss the remainder of the first half of the season. This injury compounds the Cubs' starting pitching depth issues, as they are already without right-hander Cade Horton for the rest of the season and lefty Justin Steele remains on an extended absence. Taillon exited early from Sunday's loss to the Giants, limping off the field.
