I wouldn’t say zero chance. I am more in line with Bertz comment “very little chance”, but there is a chance. 

Under what circumstances though? It’s a 1 year team option for  a flawed but productive enough arm, the war/$ is what the front office values. I’d be stunned.

Hope the Cubs give that prick Mikolas that “4th of July” beating today.

How do you do this on this version of the board? I can't figure it out.

If you click your username in the top right corner, "Ignored users" is one of the options in the drop-down menu. It took me a hot minute to figure it out too.

I think it is more complicated than that. I thought after this year the Cubs could exercise an option to go 3 year more and he would total out at $8OM for 5 years. If they didn’t do that he could then exercise an option at $15M. Honestly I don’t know all the particulars. I do know there is a little funk in his contract. Which is why I said it isn’t 100 certain he is back. I do believe he will be. Just not a zero chance.

I guess he does have a $15 million player option. I stand corrected. 3 years $57 million for a MOR starter is the sweet spot for the front office and Taillon is off the books after 2026 too. But yes, It’s a non zero% chance.
