Cubs' Jameson Taillon Hasn't Said 'Yes or No' to Any Trades Yet amid Yankees Rumors

As a handful of teams eye Jameson Taillon, the Chicago Cubs starting pitcher said he hasn't had to veto any potential trades yet, per The Athletic's Patrick Mooney.

Taillon has a 10-team no-trade list, meaning he can veto trades to certain teams. With the trade deadline looming, Taillon will have to approve of whatever team the Cubs want to trade him to, if any.

"I haven't had to say yes or no to anything," he said.

Last week, USA Today's Bob Nightengale reported that the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox are both interested in Taillon, though the team hadn't yet decided whether it would be a buyer or a seller at the deadline.

Taillon, who is in his second year with the Cubs, has a 3.35, 82 strikeouts and a 7-6 record. He would be of great assistance to a pair of teams looking to make a postseason run like the Yankees and Red Sox.

While it's been a disappointing 51-57 season for the Cubs, they are just six games back from the final wild-card spot, so a postseason run is still very much on the table for Chicago.

Cubs president of baseball operations Jed Hoyer said the team had no plans to pursue rental players at the deadline, indicating it won't make any major sacrifices in return for a shot at a deep postseason run.

Still, it's unclear whether Chicago is a buyer or seller, as it landed an All-Star in Isaac Parades from the Tampa Bay Rays on Sunday. In the hours ahead of Tuesday's deadline, the Cubs' position will become clearer, and Taillon's future will be decided.
