5 years agoPittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Jameson Taillon (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list on Monday to make room for Jake Elmore. This means that Taillon won’t be eligible for activation until the beginning of July. Taillon hadn’t gotten on roll yet in his seven starts, posting a 4.10 ERA and 1.13 WHIP with a 19 percent strikeout rate. Taillon was still pegged to be a top end starter at the beginning of the season and should be held in all leagues. Expectation is an early July return assuming there are no setbacks in his recovery. Elmore has spent most of his career in the minors and isn’t worth a look in fantasy leagues.--Zach Alexander
