With one day remaining until Tuesday’s trade deadline, the San Diego Padres are looking to add another starting pitcher to their rotation. Chicago Cubs right-handed pitcher Jameson Taillon is on their radar as he posts a career-best 2.96 ERA this season.
Since returning from the All-Star break, the Padres have been on a hot streak, winning seven of their last nine games. With one day remaining until Tuesday’s trade deadline, San Diego is looking to add another starting pitcher to its rotation.
In a career that began in 2016, Taillon has reached the 100-inning mark every season except for 2019-20, when he endured a right elbow flexor strain that resulted in Tommy John surgery. In the last three seasons, he has thrown more than 140 innings each year. This season, he has posted a 7-5 record with a career-best 2.96 ERA. He has allowed 94 hits, 34 earned runs and tallied 78 strikeouts and 21 walks. Taillon has also only pitched 100.1 innings, which is a little more than half of his career-high 191 innings in 2018.
