Jameson Taillon was relaxing at home on Friday night when he decided to check in on Cubs lefty Shota Imanaga. The veteran pitcher logged into the team’s Ivy database and watched Imanaga’s latest rehab start with Triple-A Iowa.

Imanaga's return could carry the Cubs' momentum as they make a push into the postseason. They defeated the Mariners 10-7 on Saturday.

Left-hander Shota Imanaga will rejoin the Cubs early next week in St. Louis following a sharp Triple-A start as he recovers from a hamstring injury.
