Taillon (7-3) recorded the win Thursday against the Pirates after giving up two runs on four hits and two walks in 6.1 innings. He struck out seven.
EDGE Analysis
Taillon extended his streak of quality starts to six, and it was also his eighth such effort in his last nine outings. The 33-year-old right-hander has yielded greater than three runs on just two occasions this year, and he also tied his season high in punchouts Thursday. Taillon holds a steady 3.48 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 65:16 K:BB across 82.2 innings ahead of his next appearance, which is set to come versus a Brewers team that's batting a paltry .218 against righties since the start of May.

Taillon (6-3) picked up the win Saturday, allowing one run on three hits and a walk over seven innings in a 6-1 victory over the Tigers. He struck out five.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander needed only 84 pitches (56 strikes) to deliver his fifth straight quality start, and his ninth in 13 trips to the mound. Taillon will take a four-start win streak into his next outing, which lines up to come at home next week against the Pirates.

Taillon (5-3) picked up the win Sunday against Cincinnati, allowing two runs on three hits and one walk over 6.1 innings. He struck out two.
EDGE Analysis
All of the damage against Taillon came in the sixth inning when Elly De La Cruz lifted a two-run home run. Still, Taillon notched his fourth consecutive quality start and his eighth of the campaign. In his last four appearances, Taillon has logged a 2.45 ERA and an 18:4 K:BB across 25.2 innings. He's tentatively scheduled to face the Tigers in Detroit next weekend.

Taillon (4-3) earned the win Monday against the Rockies, allowing one run on four hits and no walks over 6.1 innings. He struck out seven.
EDGE Analysis
The Chicago right-hander took care of business against a Colorado lineup that entered the contest with a league-worst .220 team batting average. The only blemish on Taillon's performance was a solo homer yielded to Mickey Moniak in the fifth. Through 63 total innings, Taillon has pitched to a 3.86 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 51:12 K:BB. He is currently scheduled to make his next start against Cincinnati at home this weekend.

Taillon (3-3) picked up the win in Tuesday's 14-1 rout of the Marlins, allowing one run on four hits and three walks over seven innings. He struck out two.
EDGE Analysis
A solo shot by Nick Fortes in the third inning was the only blemish on Taillon's line, as he delivered his second straight quality start against Miami and his sixth of the season in 10 trips to the mound. Keeping the ball in the yard remains a serious concern for the right-hander, however -- he's served up nine homers in his last four starts, fueling a 4.30 ERA over that stretch despite a 1.09 WHIP and 18:5 K:BB in 23 innings. Taillon gets a soft matchup for his next outing, which lines up to come at home early next week against the Rockies.

Taillon (2-3) took the loss Wednesday against the Marlins, allowing three runs on four hits and no walks with seven strikeouts over six innings.
EDGE Analysis
Taillon surrendered four home runs in his previous start and couldn't keep the ball inside the park once again Wednesday. Three of the four hits he allowed to the Marlins were long balls, with Kyle Stowers hitting two and Agustin Ramirez accounting for one. Though Taillon hadn't yielded multiple home runs since his season debut before this stretch, he's been tagged for a homer in all but two starts this year. Over 49.2 innings, he owns a 4.53 ERA and a 42:9 K:BB. Taillon will look to get back on track in his next start, which is scheduled for Tuesday against Miami.

Taillon (2-2) took the loss Friday, coughing up six runs (five earned) on nine hits -- including four home runs -- and a walk over four innings as the Cubs were downed 7-2 by the Mets. He struck out four.
EDGE Analysis
Francisco Lindor drove the third pitch he saw from Taillon into the right-field bullpen area at Citi Field to lead off the bottom of the first inning, setting the tone for the night. The veteran right-hander came into Friday having served up just six homers in his first seven starts of the season, while the outing snapped a streak of six straight outings in which he'd given up three runs or fewer. The stumble leaves Taillon with a 4.53 ERA despite a 1.17 WHIP and 35:9 K:BB through 43.2 innings, and he'll look to get back on track in his next trip to the mound, which lines up to come at home next week against the Marlins.

Taillon (2-1) earned the win Saturday in Milwaukee after giving up two runs on three hits and a walk over six innings. He struck out five.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran right-hander wasn't exactly dominant as he induced just four swinging strikes, but he delivered his second straight quality start to help secure his first victory since April 2. Taillon surrendered six earned runs during his season debut in Arizona, but he's posted a 2.80 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 30:8 K:BB in 35.1 innings across his past six outings.

Taillon did not factor in the decision during Sunday's extra-inning loss against Philadelphia. He allowed a run on five hits over seven innings while striking out two.
EDGE Analysis
The lone blemish on Taillon's outing was an RBI single by Trea Turner in the third inning. It was the first time Taillon threw more than six innings this season and he registered his third quality start. He tossed 60 of 88 pitches for strikes and turned in his first start without a walk since his season debut March 28. Taillon is sporting a 4.01 ERA with a 26:7 K:BB through 33.2 frames. He's in line to start in Milwaukee next weekend.

Taillon allowed one run on three hits across five innings and did not factor into the decision during Sunday's 3-2, 11-inning loss to the Diamondbacks. He walked two and struck out six.
EDGE Analysis
Taillon pitched well enough to deserve his second win of the season but didn't receive enough run support to escape his third straight no-decision. The veteran righty allowed six runs over 4.1 innings in his first start of the year, but since then, he's allowed only eight runs across 22.1 innings while striking out 23. Taillon seems to be rounding into form, and he'll look to keep pitching well in his next scheduled start, which is penciled in for next Sunday against the Phillies, as the Cubs only play five games in the coming week.
