Cubs pitcher Jameson Taillon joined host Andy Martínez on the Cubs Weekly Podcast from the Nike Performance Center in Mesa, Ariz. The righty caught up with Martínez to chat about his offseason and how he prepared for a season that starts earlier than normal because of the Tokyo Series in Japan. Then, Taillon shares how he followed the Cubs’ busy offseason and how much he followed the rumor mill in the winter.
Later in the pod, Taillon talks about his 2024 season and what he learned about himself in turning in one of his best years. Taillon discusses his role in helping young pitchers and offering mentorship to them. He talks about the Cubs’ goals for 2025 and their desire to be playing in October.
Before the podcast ends, Taillon offers a peak behind the curtain about the team’s hotly contested video game contests on team flights and the surprising player that is one of the best in those in-air competitions.
