The 2022 Baseball Winter Meetings in San Diego opened Sunday, December 4 and run through Wednesday.
With industry experts expecting a flurry of activity in the coming days, we’ll be tracking all the rumors that pertain to the Philadelphia Phillies.
Wednesday, December 7 at 1:04 a.m. ET: Jameson Taillon to the Cubs
The Phillies had been identified as a “team to watch” in Jameson Taillon’s reportedly deep market on Monday (see below).
While the Taijuan Walker signing probably took their name out of the sweepstakes anyway, the wee hours of Wednesday morning saw Taillon’s name officially come off the board: He reportedly agreed to a deal with the Chicago Cubs (another “team to watch”), for the same length and $1 million in AAV less than Walker’s contract.
