The Cubs' 34-year-old starter leaves a Sunday game against San Francisco in the second inning.
Cubs starter Jameson Taillon will be placed on the injured list after exiting Sunday's game against the Giants with a left hamstring strain in the top of the second inning. Taillon, 34, had allowed no runs through one inning before the injury forced him from the mound.
The 10-year veteran enters the week with a 2-1 record, 4.41 ERA, and 34.2 innings pitched across six starts. The injury removes a rotation anchor from Chicago's midseason stretch and forces an immediate depth move for the club.
