Razzle recommended Jameson Taillon as a strong mid-tier play. Colorado owns the league’s worst road K-rate and the wind is blowing in at Wrigley, tamping down Taillon’s homer risk (he has allowed bombs in 8-of-10 starts but the only two homer-free outings came at Wrigley with similar conditions). Books hung a 6.5 K-prop (tied for second-best) and –135 win odds. Razzle expects six strikeouts and a quality start, making Taillon a reliable option in both cash and GPPs.

Kyle Purviance loves Cubs –1.5 at +150. Jameson Taillon’s 3.08 xFIP and 54 % ground-ball rate suggest his early-season rebound is real, whereas Jose Quintana, with only two decent starts, now faces a Chicago order that ranks third in OPS (.812) against southpaws. Purviance hammered Milwaukee’s offense—25.6 % K-rate and 28th in ISO vs righties—claiming they lack the punch to come back if Taillon gets an early cushion. Chicago’s bullpen is seventh in WPA, wind is forecast to blow out to left at Wrigley, and Kyle sees the +150 as badly mis-priced.

Martin grabbed the Cubs at +100 because Jameson Taillon is trending up while the matchup favors Chicago’s bats. Taillon has posted back-to-back one-run outings and is seeing his velocity steadily climb. Chicago owns the No. 2 wRC+ versus left-handed pitching and the No. 3 lineup overall, a clear edge over a Brewers offense that has underperformed and struggles against right-handers. Milwaukee starter Jose Quintana boasts a shiny 1.11 ERA and 4-0 record but Martin believes regression looms, and the Brewers’ 9-4 home mark is masking a .500 overall club. With the better lineup and a pitcher on the upswing, Martin likes the Cubs to upset the Brew Crew.

Drew Martin wants the Diamondbacks at Wrigley because Jameson Taillon’s four‑seamer has lost nearly 1.8 mph since last August and his swinging‑strike rate has cratered to 7 %. Arizona’s top‑of‑order trio of Carroll, Marte and Walker owns a combined .385 OBP and should force early bullpen usage. Martin believes books will still price Chicago as a slight favorite at home, creating plus‑money value on Arizona. He will grab the D‑backs moneyline down to +105.

Just A Bet Outside described Jameson Taillon's recent pitching performances as downright terrible. Over 16.1 innings pitched, he surrendered 18 hits and 11 earned runs, highlighting major red flags for fantasy and betting outlooks. With ongoing struggles pinpointed clearly, fading Taillon represents a solid angle today.
