The Houston Astros are interested in potentially acquiring Chicago Cubs starter Jameson Taillon ahead of the MLB trade deadline, according to Chandler Rome, Ken Rosenthal and Patrick Mooney of The Athletic.

With the Cubs currently sitting 5.5 games back from the final National League wild card spot, they may choose to move the 32-year-old right-hander.
