6 years after the choice of draft in the first round, Cubs brings the Ryan Jensen launcher back to Chicago in the midst of the injury problems of Jameson Taillon

In their push to win their first Central NL title since 2020, the Chicago Cubs have received a major injury. The launcher leaving Jameson Taillon has injured his right calf and should spend a lot of time on the sidelines.

With a file of 7-6, as well as an MPM of 4.44 and 74 stick withdrawals, Taillon was in no case the AS of the Cubs staff, but an arm quite reliable to invoke nevertheless. Naturally, Taillon’s injury obliges Cubs to bring an additional launcher on the list to compensate for the absence of 33 years.

To assume this responsibility, it seems that the organization plans Ryan Jensen, 27, which was signed in a minor league contract on July 3. In the minor leagues of this season, Jensen has a file of 2-4, with an MPM of 6.59 and 39 withdrawals in total.

By the way, this is not the first passage from Jensen to Chicago, having also been signed by the team six years ago as a 27th choice of the draft of the MLB 2019. Things did not end up planning Jensen’s first passage in the city of Windy, and he finally left the team to join the Seattle Mariners during derogations in 2023.

The right-handers will finally have the chance to prove itself at the highest level this time.

The report of Cubs Skipper Craig Counsell on the injury of Jameson Taillon does not seem promising

Addressing the press on Friday, Craig Counsell was naturally questioned by journalists about the injury suffered by the launcher leaving Jameson Taillon. Addressing the question, Counsell said:

“It was unfortunately an injury [Jameson Taillon sustained] During training. He runs and felt a catch after his enclosure of the lifts [session]. It will miss a fairly important time, more than a month. He has muscle tension in his calf. “”

With the cubs in a solid position to win their division and challenge the World Series, the fans hope that Jameson Taillon will come back stronger. For the moment, they will support Ryan Jensen to skillfully deputy in his absence.
